Just finished the Stanford Twins Netflix special. Replaced the beef in my hospital taco salad with spicy tofu today! The twins from South Africa in series made me think of our upcoming meeting in Africa. I’m seeing an MRI of a plant -based diet session at ISMRM soon!! ISMRM x.com/mribri999/stat…

Singapore rapidly approaching. Dr. Wally is highly motivated to lose “a stone” as Derek Jones would put it so I’m not squirming a lot on the flight. Start throwing out good movies and book suggestions too #ismrm #ismrm2024

I’ve tried the Generative AI tool and it’s a lot of fun. You can tune your prompts just like ChatGPT. And your feedback will help tune the ISMRM search engines of the future #ismrm2024

What a sweet accomplishment this is!! Nancy was transformative in showing young engineers like me how MRI could work in a hospital. Glad to see her lifetime of work recognized!

Had an interesting day in DC showing how NINDS funding in MR -guided brain surgery, the HBCD project, and rapid progress in MR diffusion imaging could change devastating pediatric rare disease treatments from palliative routes to cures ISMRM UW-Madison Department of Medical Physics UW Radiology

Hi Everyone, I’m hoping a walk over to Blue Sky social will provide a quieter, less vitriolic place to discuss medicine and my side interests. Curious how others in ISMRM feel about LinkedIn and Blue Sky as a place to build community.

Interesting article raises questions for those of us in science and engineering working on future challenges in developing more inclusive learning environments and how we interact and support our friends in the humanities

The first five minutes grabbed me. One woman described that her superiors described her role in Opus Dei “as a rug that softened the footsteps of others”. Another said “if people knew what was going on, all hell would break loose”

“Mass movements can rise and spread without belief in a God, but never without belief in a Devil”. Eric Hoffer from “ The True Believer “ More spot on insight in this story. Wow, may need to buy subscription to Commonweal!

Alexander Dugin was star in “War for Eternity: The Return of Traditionalism and Rise of the Popular Right“ by Benjamin Teitelbaum who argued these extremists were too cranky to be influential unless they got the ear of those in power. Looks like that time is now. Scary listen here.

Often gene therapies for rare brain diseases work where infused but need broader coverage. D. Bermudez reviews how MRI can build on its brain mapping success to transform palliative approaches to cures. #ismrm BDSRA Foundation JMRI UW–Madison onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jm…
