OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Prof. Rachel Katz-Brull is Associate Professor of Imaging at the Hebrew University Faculty of Medicine and the Director of the Centre for Hyperpolarized MRI Molecular Imaging at Hadassah’s Ein-Kerem campus in Jerusalem, Israel.
Prof. Katz-Brull has 25 years of experience in the field of biomedical nuclear magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy (NMR/MRI/MRS) and has been focusing on hyperpolarized MRI in the last 10 years. Her current research focuses on the development of dDNP hyperpolarized molecular imaging probes for diagnostic medical imaging. Her group has developed analogues of choline, glucose, and phosphate molecular imaging probes for 13C and 31P hyperpolarized MRI, with 31P dDNP magnetic resonance in solution pioneered by her group. The use of molecular imaging probes with directly bound deuterons to hyperpolarized sites as dDNP imaging agents per se was pioneered by her group as well and led to the first glucose and choline imaging without ionizing radiation.
