Olivia Sehl wants to stop the spread of breast cancer!
1. Who are you? Tell us about yourself. My name is Olivia Sehl. I am a MSc candidate in the department of Medical Biophysics at Western University. I work at the Robarts Research Institute under the supervision of Dr. Paula Foster to conduct research for breast cancer diagnosis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In 2018, […]
Developing a molecular imaging technique using MRI
Hello, My name is Yonathan Araya, I am a PhD candidate in the Department of Medical Biophysics at Western University. I work in the Imaging Research Laboratories at Robarts Research Institute under the supervision Dr. Timothy Scholl. Dr. Scholl’s lab focuses on developing advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for use with novel molecular imaging […]
MRI cell tracking for breast cancer
Hi, My name is Ashley Makela and I am a PhD candidate in the department of Medical Biophysics at Western University. I am working at Robarts Research Institute in Dr. Paula Foster’s lab where our main focus is to develop magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to “track” cells. My research involves using this MRI cell […]
Imaging biomarkers in treatment of breast cancer with high-dose radiation therapy
My name is Matthew Mouawad. I am a third-year PhD student in the department of Medical Biophysics at Western University working under the supervision of Drs. Stewart Gaede and Neil Gelman. With the high prevalence of breast cancers (1 in 9 women) in North America, we need to find ways to minimize the emotional and […]
Donna, PhD candidate, studies the prevention of breast cancer metastases
Hi! My name is Donna Murrell and I’m a PhD candidate in the Department of Medical Biophysics at Western University. I’m working under the supervision of Dr. Paula Foster at Robarts Research Institute, and we’re using MRI to monitor the fate of breast cancer cells in the brain. You might have seen my first blog […]
