LaSEEB’s research was included in the last episode of RTP’s show Outras Histórias (Season 2, Episode 9).
Marco Miranda (MSc student) showed the work he has been developing in our laboratory. The episode included interviews with Marco Miranda and Prof. Agostinho Rosa , as well as a demonstration of electroencephalography (EEG) data acquisition.
The episode can be seen on https://www.rtp.pt/play/p5364/outras-historias (10m30s-20m15s).
LaSEEB’s member Ana Rita Oliveira won the award of best MSc Thesis Paper at the IEEE Portuguese Meeting in Bioengineering, with the work “Identification of brain connectivity disruptions due to thalamic lesions in early development using Diffusion-Weighted MRI”, supervised by Prof. Patrícia Figueiredo and Prof. Rita Nunes.
Congratulations Rita!
Prof. Patrícia Figueiredo and Joana Pinto attended the University of Michigan International Workshop on Arterial Spin Labeling MRI: Technical Updates and Clinical Experience (Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, 9-10 March 2019).
The workshop was intended for the community of users and developers of Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) MRI techniques to share new findings, discuss developments & experience, with the intent of mapping out further technical recommendations for clinical translation.
