A 3-year PhD position is available at the Danish Research Center for Magnetic Resonance (Copenhagen) and the Technical University of Denmark. The focus of the project will be on applying novel MR methods to significantly improve the sensitivity of MR electrical impedance tomography (MREIT). MREIT allows estimating the ohmic conductivity of tissue in-vivo. As such, MREIT is a potential novel diagnostic technique for tumor detection. In addition, it allows for a direct validation of the volume conductor models used in EEG/MEG source localization and in brain stimulation. The latter is highly needed as inaccurcies in the assumed ohmic conductivities of tissues pose a fundamental limitation on the accuracy of those models. The work will be conducted in collaboration with the MR-Center at the Max-Planck Insitute in Tübingen (Germany).
