Summer School 2008 - Cardiovascular Applications of Molecular Imaging

This year's DiMI/EMIL Summer School will take place on 1st - 4th September at the University of Münster, Germany. In 2008, the Summer School of Molecular Imaging is focused on the application of molecular imaging on cardiovascular diseases. Various techniques of molecular imaging can be used for refined diagnosis of diseases responsible for the highest number of victims in industrialized countries. The University of Münster (Germany) will host the summer school with contributions by researchers from Europe and the US.

The summer school is organized by the research networks DiMI and EMIL, however, is open to all researchers and students interested.

  • The Summer School introduces doctoral students and young researchers in the field of Molecular Imaging.
  • Participants are encouraged to participate in fruitful scientific discussions in a familiar environment
  • The Summer School provides a platform where the attendees meet leading senior scientists from around Europe who give review lectures on selected topics
  • The format of the Summer School is a small-medium scale (60 attendees) four day meeting combing lectures as well as demonstrations / hands on and practical sessions in small groups.
  • After work leisure activities will even allow you to network with colleagues from other institutions and countries.

Organizers
