DESCRIPTION:[]\n\nThis talk will explore the role of magnetic resonance ima
 ging (MRI) in neuroimaging\, with a focus on recent developments in quanti
 tative (qMRI) imaging techniques\, which aim to utilize MRI as an instrume
 nt for generating accurate and precise quantitative maps of intrinsic phys
 ical parameters. This talk is aimed at an audience with a technical backgr
 ound but not necessarily a background in medical imaging\, and will cover 
 a high-level overview of MRI\, the image formation process\, intrinsic and
  extrinsic contrast mechanisms\, and the digital signal processing aspects
  of data fitting to generate quantitative parameter maps. Recent developme
 nts and novel research applications will be discussed\, including methods 
 to increase quantitative accuracy utilizing advanced calibration technique
 s\, as well as the role machine learning can play in qMRI.\n\nSpeaker(s):
