Dr. Deniz Aybas Tumturk Bilkent University Date/Time: Thursday, 18 April 2024, 16:30-17:30 Location: SC-106 Abstract: We use optically pumped alkali atoms near room-temperature to measure perturbations in the local magnetic fields. These perturbations can be sourced from astrophysical particles that have magnetic signatures, or from nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals of liquid or solid samples. Optically pumped magnetometers […]

However, current implantable devices cannot provide stable recordings over long […]
Read More Dr. Meltem Karataş Date: December 12, 2023 Time: 16.30 Place: UMRAM, SC106 Abstract: Translational studies, primarily involving rodent models, have been the mainstay of biomedical sciences. Rodent experiments allow understanding of physiological processes, deciphering pathological mechanisms, and aiding the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Among others, magnetic resonance imaging constitutes an invaluable tool for translation, as it is […]
