EVENT

BBL/CIBM/FCBG 2024

On May 15th, 2024, the whole community gathered in the Marcel-Jenny auditorium at the University Hospital Geneva (HUG) for an overview of ongoing projects using the MRI infrastructures at Fondation Campus Biotech Geneva (FCBG), Brain Behavior Laboratory (BBL) and Center for Biomedical Imaging (CIBM).

The FCBG was particularly proud to see for the first time 7T related projects acquired on the new Siemens Healthineers 7T MAGNETOM Terra.X MRI scanner available to all at Campus Biotech.
