For the first time, the K. G. Jebsens Centre for Alzheimer’s Disease (JCA), the Norwegian Center for Headache Research (NorHead) and the Norwegian 7T MR Center will host a two-day seminar in translational neurometabolism.
We are grateful to be joined by excellent speakers who are international experts in their fields. They will cover a range of topics, including:
- State-of-the art magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the human brain: 1H MRS, 31P MRS, 2H MRS, MRSI, DW-MRS, fMRS
- Using PET to study metabolism in the human brain
- 13C MRS and genetic tools to study brain metabolism in animals and neural cell culture
- Multi-cellular brain energy metabolism – the astrocyte-neuron lactate shuttle
- Neurometabolism in neurodegenerative diseases
- Neurometabolism in headache disorders
- Clinical applications of magnetic resonance spectroscopy
The seminar is open to everyone with a research or clinical interest in brain metabolism. For more info, visit the website: https://www.ntnu.edu/web/norhead/seminar/measuring-metabolism-in-the-human-brain
