Dmitry S NovikovDr. Novikov brings a decade of experience in theoretical condensed matter physics to the biomedical MRI. He is developing analytical tools and parameter estimation methods to quantify cellular-level tissue structure and its changes in disease based o various MRI contrasts. His contributions include the effective medium approach for diffusion and relaxation to quantify cell density, their packing arrangement, membrane permeability and other related metrics, with the goal to identify quantitative disease biomarkers in neurodegenerative diseases, tumors and myopathies. He introduced the problem-solving approach to the ISMRM educational sessions. Read More Read Less
