The UCSF Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging will hold its 9th Annual Imaging Research Symposium on October 30, 2012. The Annual Imaging Research Symposium “provides a snapshot of the diversity and depth of the excellence in research in our department,” says Sharmila Majumdar, PhD, Vice Chair of Research.

The Symposium has grown in scope each year, serving as a touchstone for the array of imaging research performed in the department. This year’s oral presentations will begin at 1:00 PM in Cole Hall, and will cover a variety of research topics with a focus on imaging of cancer, the brain, cartilage degeneration, aging, and white matter injury, among other important medical imaging subjects.
