We are excited to announce that the 22nd in vivo NMR course will be held at Golfcentrum “De Hoge Dijk” in Amsterdam, hosted by Amsterdam UMC.
The course introduces PhD students, postdocs and other scientists to the basic principles of modern in vivo MR imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) as used in biomedical and biological research. It covers basic MR physics as well as advanced MRI applications, taught by experts in the field, with theoretical and practical exercises and demonstrations.
Please note that the course puts very little focus on image analysis.
Organizers
Bram Coolen, PhD & Gustav Strijkers, PhD Preclinical & Translational MRI group,
Department of Biomedical Engineering & Physics, Amsterdam UMC
Registration
Registration costs are estimated at €400-450 euro for PhD students and post-docs, and €750 for medical physicists and other participants.
Fees will cover attendance to the lectures and practicals, as well as lunch and coffee/tea.
Total number of participants is limited to 24 *.
The official registration site is not open yet, but you can send an early-bird request for participation to b.f.coolen@amsterdamumc.nl. Everyone who sends a request will be notified first once registration opens.
When: 30 Nov to 4 Dec 2026
Where: Amsterdam UMC, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Scope of the course
The aim of this course is to introduce PhD students, post-docs, and other scientists in the principles of modern in vivo MR imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) as applied to living systems in biomedical and biological research. The course will consist of lectures by experts in the field, as well as theoretical and practical exercises and demonstrations.
