Partner 6: Universität Zürich - UZH
Involved in this project is the Institute for Biomedical Engineering (IBT).
Partner Info:
The MRI and optical imaging labs of the Animal Imaging Center located at the ETH Campus Hönggerberg are part of the Institute for Biomedical Engineering (IBT), which is a joint institute of the University of Zürich (UZH) and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH). The UZH is the State University of the Kanton of Zürich, while the ETH is a National University of the Swiss Federation.
The IBT's focus is the development of imaging technology. Belonging to the Medical Faculty of UZH it fosters immediate links to the biomedical research application.The Institute has a wide spread range of collaborations, with the Neuroscience Center Zürich (UZH/ETH, focus application: neural plasticity and repair), with the Competence Center for Systems Physiology and Metabolic Disease (ETH, focus application: metabolic diseases and cancer), but also with medical faculties (Neurology, Cardiology, Gastro-Intestinal Diseases to name a few). Moreover, the animal imaging group is associated with the ETH Department of Chemistry and Applied Biosciences, which is of great relevance considering the development of targeted probes.
