Our physicists talk about ground breaking new techniques and discoveries made with the use of imaging. Join us to learn more.
Don't miss our webinar where Associate Professor Kaye Morgan and Dr Taïssa Danilovich from the School of Physics and Astronomy will share groundbreaking insights into the versatile use of imaging.
Associate Professor Kaye Morgan will discuss her innovative X-ray imaging techniques, which look at how x-rays bend and scatter to capture real-time snapshots of lung airways and sacs. This breakthrough aids in the early detection and monitoring of lung diseases such as Cystic Fibrosis, a life-threatening inherited disorder affecting the lungs.
Dr. Taïssa Danilovich will explore the cosmic side of imaging techniques, presenting her pioneering work using imaging data to study dying stars. Analysing telescopic images from the powerful ALMA telescope in Chile, her research sheds light on the birth of new elements and the potential formation of planets through observations of dying stars.
Join us for a fascinating journey at the intersection of imaging, human health, and cosmic phenomena.
