Research project

Functionalized Magnetic Resonance Beacons for Enhanced Spectroscopy and Imaging

Research groups:

Magnetic Resonance
Research funder:

European Union
Status:

Active

Project overview

Development and demonstration of molecular agents called functional magnetic resonance beacons (fMRBs). These agents support hyperpolarized spin order locked into long-lived states which may be converted into strong NMR signals upon activation by a physical, chemical, or biochemical signal.
