Email: william.holmes@glasgow.ac.uk

Position: Co-Director of Glasgow’s Experimental MRI Centre (GEMRIC), MR physicist

Interests:

I am interested in all aspects of Magnetic Resonance, with emphasis on pre-clinical research. My research interests focus on the development and application of novel MR methods in both the physical and biomedical sciences.

Institute: University of Glasgow

Department: Institute of Neuroscience & Psychology

Research Themes

Pre-clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Development of diagnostic and therapeutic techniques in stroke. Pre-clinical therapeutic agents in oncology. Novel cardiac imaging methods. Application of MRI /MRS in the physical sciences and engineering.
