Professor Franklin Aigbirhio Research in the development and application of molecular imaging probes, in particular for the in vivo imaging technique of positron emission tomography. Objectives are to design, develop and apply imaging probes that are specific and selective to...
Dr Abhishekh Ashok MBBS PhD I am visiting researcher at the Department of Radiology. My research interest include developing novel neuroimaging techniques to understand the molecular process underlying physiological and pathological states of brain. My research uses novel MR...
Professor Jean-Claude Baron My research focuses on the pathophysiology of ischaemic stroke and the mechanisms underlying subsequent deterioration or recovery, including neuronal damage, tissue inflammation and long-term plasticity processes. In terms of methodology, my appro...
Dr Adrian Carpenter Our group develops new techniques for the acquisition and analysis of PET and MR images to improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of disease. We also develop novel instrumentation, for example we are an internationally leading centre d...
Dr Tim Fryer My research concentrates on positron emission tomography (PET) methodology, with particular emphasis on the quantitative accuracy of the physiological parameters derived from the data.
Current research themes are:
parametric mapping using b...
Dr Young T. Hong My main research area is developing mathematical models and numerical techniques in analysis of positron emission tomography (PET) data. Most of the PET images are obtained for acute head injury, psychiatry and neurology clinical research.
Dr Ibrahim Jalloh Which fuels are best for the injured brain? Ibrahim is a consultant adult and paediatric neurosurgeon who was awarded a World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies Young Neurosurgeon of the Year award in 2017. His research, supported by the MRC, a...
Professor Matt Lambon Ralph FBA FMedSci Research programmes:
1. Semantic cognition and its disorders
2. Aphasia
3. Recovery, rehabilitation and neuroplasticity
Our research makes parallel use of multiple methodologies in an attempt to secure convergent insights on the given research to...
Virginia Newcombe My research focuses on the use of MR imaging as a biomarker in traumatic brain injury (TBI). I am particularly interested in prediction of outcome after TBI and how acute management influences the long-term outcomes of patients. My projects, which...
Professor Stephen Price Glioblastomas are the most aggressive, malignant primary tumour of the brain. They are also unfortunately the commonest. We have not seen any new treatments in over a decade. My group is particularly interested in focal therapies, surgery and radi...
Chris Rodgers I am an expert in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS). My group develop advanced MRI and MRS methods usnig the 7T Terra MRI scanner at the Wolfson Brain Imaging Centre. Our aim is to push the boundaries of MR...
Dr Catarina Rua I am a post-doctoral researcher member of the MR Physics team and working on the 7T Terra MRI scanner at the Wolfson Brain Imaging Centre in Cambridge, UK. I am involved in the UK7T Network Project which aims at standardizing imaging protocols acr...
Professor Barbara Sahakian FMedSci DSc My research is aimed at understanding the neural basis of cognitive, emotional and behavioural dysfunction in order to develop more effective pharmacological and psychological treatments. The focus of my lab is on early detection, differential dia...
Dr Stephen Sawiak I am a physicist working with MRI.
My primary research interest has been in morphometry, with structural imaging, diffusion tensor imaging and spectroscopy. I am particularly focussed on preclinical applications.
Mr Yizhou Wan High-grade glioma is the most common primary brain cancer. Cognitive symptoms are the commonest neurological deficits reported by patients. They have a significant impact on quality of life and reduce survival. Cognition depends on brain network f...
Dr Elizabeth Warburton Research interests are as follows
1. Molecular imaging of atheroma - particularly carotid plaque imaging using PET/CT and MRI techniques. Both Clinical and microPET imaging. Proof of principle trials of novel atheroma drugs with imaging biomarker...
Professor Guy Williams Our group’s research interests lie broadly in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). This phenomenon allows data to be collected noninvasively on both the structure and function of the human brain. We research novel acquisition methods to provide contr...
Dr Shahid Zaman The main theme of our research is to understand the role of amyloid, tau, inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction in the genesis of cognitive impairment and dementia in people with Down's syndrome.
