Talk Title: Comparison of Double Diffusion Encoding and NODDI
Event: International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine 25th Annual Meeting - Grant also presented a PowerPitch titled “Visualizing Axonal Damage in Multiple Sclerosis Using Double Diffusion Encoding MRI in a Clinical Setting”, which received a Magna Cum Laude Merit award, given to abstracts that score in the top 15% within a major subject review category.
Dr. Grant Rotskoff's research focuses on theoretical and computational approaches to "mesoscale" biophysics. Many of the cellular phenomena that we consider the hallmarks of living systems occur at the scale of hundreds or thousands of proteins. Processes like the self-assembly of organelle-sized structures, the dynamics of cell division, and the transduction of signals from the environment to the machinery of the cell are not macroscopic phenomena—they are the result of a fluctuating, nonequilibrium dynamics.
