Program Objective
This one day program is aimed at physicians, biomedical scientist,
and graduate students who are interested in the application of
magnetic resonance spectroscopy to physiology. The role of
NMR methods of the investigation of intact organ physiology with
particular emphasis on brain and muscle physiology will be
discussed.
An overview of current problems pathophysiology will be given by
experts in the field and applications of state of the art NMR
techniques will be presented.
