Natural History Collections and Biodiversity

Natural history museums are privileged spaces for seminal research on different subjects of biological sciences such as biodiversity, evolution, ecology, biogeography and taxonomy. This crucial role is due to the fact that they represent biological diversity repositories becoming huge libraries of information on Earth living organisms. The long-term sampling through various decades renders tonatural history collections an historic perspective that allows reconstructing a “memory”, sometimes secular, of natural patterns and processes.

Advances in Multimodal Imaging in Humans

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!
