This project has been made possible in part by a grant from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative DAF, an advised fund of Silicon Valley Community Foundation.
Western Sydney University Node contains Biomedical Magnetic Resonance Facility and it is part of the National Imaging Facility (NIF), a national biomedical imaging infrastructure in Australia.
The Node has a strong theoretical background in sequence development especially with regard to diffusion Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The Node has 11.7 and 14.1 T wide bore MRI (i.e. 89 mm). Current projects include studies of nanoparticle contrast agents in mouse brains and other organs to DTI studies of grapes to q-space imaging and characterisation of porous media. The Node also has micro-CT and a Fast Field Cycling NMR (FFC NMR) capability.
The full list of equipment available at the Node is available here.
