Magnetic Resonance

The section’s field of research and teaching is within Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy in a broad sense, including applications, optical realizations, and analysis. Magnetic Resonance is a powerful spectroscopic technique providing detailed information about the structure and dynamics of molecules (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) or high-resolution anatomical and functional images (Magnetic Resonance Imaging).

Through technological and methodological research, often involving hyperpolarization, we enable the study and manipulation of complex processes and systems previously not visible, e.g. the inner workings of living cells or the stimulation of brain neurons. Applications include improved clinical diagnosis, treatment monitoring and personalized medicine.
