Scientific Nodes Committee (SNC) 2024-2026
We are pleased to announce the committee of seven scientific nodes for the years 2024-2026, consisting of two speakers from each node:
- Development of Imaging Probes (DIP): Irena Pashkunova-Martic, Karsten Bamminger
"In my role as a speaker of the node 'Development of Imaging Probes (DIP)', I take this crucial and challenging position to provide a platform for the design of multimodal imaging probes connecting in turn researchers and their expertise on the development of future “all-in-one-tool” for personalized diagnosis & treatment of cancer being the major objective of our common research." (IPM)
- Image Computing, Analysis and Visualisation (ICAV): Georg Langs (Radiology), Wolfgang Birkfellner (Medical Physics)
- Image Guided Therapy and Theranostics (IGTT): Gerd Heilemann, Ivo Florian Rausch
"For proper medical imaging, the technology, the biology and the practical applications need to be understood. And this requires multi-disciplinary cooperation." (IFR)
- Microscopy and Advanced Optical Imaging (MAOI): Wolfgang Drexler, Kareem Elsayad
“Translating novel multimodal optical imaging technologies.” (WD);
„Development and application of optical micro-spectroscopy techniques for biomedical research and towards translation.” (KE)
- Preclinical Imaging (PI): Markus Mitterhauser, Thomas Wanek
- Quantitative Clinical Imaging (QCI): Sazan Rasul (PET), Benjamin Spurny-Dworak (MR)
"As a speaker for the QCI node, I am delighted to be working towards innovative and interdisciplinary collaboration in order to further develop state-of-the-art imaging techniques and advance our research at the highest level." (BSD)
- Telemedicine (TM): Ursula Schmidt-Erfurth, Christina Hafner
Term: 10/2024 - 09/2026
Nodes Coordinator: Claudia Kuntner-Hannes
