Congratulations to Guillaume Paillart and Zhongzheng He, whose paper has just been published in NMR in Biomedicine! In this paper, we studied the impact of brain electrical conductivity values on electromagnetic simulations of the human body, using generic biomodels (such as “Kaja” or “Hugo”). We have shown that when we use conductivity values measured in […]

Congratulations to Charlotte Milano, who defended her thesis on December 5, 2025! Her work was carried out at the Reims Mathematics Laboratory and focused on “Numerical methods for electromagnetic mapping in medical imaging.” This applied mathematics work made it possible to formalize the problem of reconstructing electrical properties in MRI as an inverse problem, for […]

CIC-IT Nancy, in collaboration with IADI in Nancy and ICube in Strasbourg, is recruiting volunteers to perform in-vivo MRI mapping of electrical conductivity. The study will involve three age groups (6-12 years, 20-40 years, and 70 years and older) and will improve our understanding of electrical conductivity in the human body by specifying average values […]

Congratulations to Zhongzheng He, who defended his thesis on October 17, 2024! His work was carried out at the IADI laboratory and focused on the “Quantification of Electrical Properties of Organs by Magnetic Resonance Imaging”. This defense was an opportunity to present Zhongzheng’s many contributions to the ELECTRA project: optimization of the MRI acquisition protocol […]

Congratulations to Zhongzheng He and Paul Soullié, whose paper has just been published in Nature Scientific Reports! In this article, MRI measurements of electrical conductivity were carried out on a small population of healthy adult volunteers. Interestingly, the values measured in-vivo in the brain were reproducible, and higher than the ex-vivo values currently used as […]
