Abstract: In science today, mechanisms play a relevant role to explain the relation between causes and effects. For example, in healthcare, neuro or social sciences suitable descriptions help to interpret functions and how parts and processes interact and work. Also, by using mechanisms we know how attain more realism by scaling-up.

Jon Shah will present his work about the development and implementation of new methods combining Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in a hybrid MR-PET scanner. This opens new frontiers for the study and application of innovative methods in basic and translational brain research.
Do not miss this opportunity to know Jon Shah, the Director of the Institute of Neuroscience and Medicine in Juelich, with more than 500 publications and almost 13,500 citations!
