An image of the future: Innovations in imaging research

-
11:00pm - 1:00am

Lawson Health Research Institute has long been a leader in biomedical imaging. The first MRI images in Canada were captured at St. Joseph’s Hospital and we were the first in the country to install PET/CT and PET/MRI scanners. New developments in imaging research continue to enhance the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of a wide range of diseases, from cancer to PTSD

You are invited to Lawson’s Café Scientifique, a free community event providing an informal opportunity to get involved with science. Hear a panel of Lawson Imaging scientists discuss their cutting-edge work and have the opportunity ask questions as part of an open-forum discussion to gain insights from the speakers, and from one another. 

In celebration of Canada’s 150th anniversary as a nation, this event is the first of a two-part series focusing on the future vision for health care in our country and the legacy our research will leave.
