Idea to impact: A beginner’s introduction to commercialisation is a seminar series designed for members of the SINAPSE network who are interested in learning about the commercialisation process and creating real-world impact from their research. This will provide attendees with the knowledge and skills to begin the journey of translating their research. It is ideal for PhD and early career researchers or for everyone who wants to know more about research commercialisation.

The University of Aberdeen is looking for a Post-doctoral Data Analysist to extend work on brain health and small vessel disease assessment using novel Field-Cycling technology. This will include the development of optimised 3D pulse sequences for FCI neuroimaging, collection of multi-field MRI data from ultra-low fields to 3T and the analysis of images for the extraction of quantitative parameters such as R1 (1/T1.) and small vessel lesion load. The post is based at the Institute of Medical Sciences, School of Medicine, University of Aberdeen
