DRCMR
My appointment in Copenhagen Hvidovre University Hospital and at DRCMR allows me to combine my clinical expertise in radiology with research experience in clinical research projects. My research is focused on the assessment of human brain metabolism in healthy and diseased brains utilizing the state-of-the-art methods of neuroimaging and spectroscopy at ultra-high field MR scanners
