EMRF is the European Forum for MR in research and clinical practice.

It is the oldest interdisciplinary institution in Europe devoted to medical and biological magnetic resonance, bridging the gap between the exact sciences and medicine.

EMRF is part of The Round Table Foundation.

European Magnetic Resonance Award 2010

2010 marks the 25th anniversary of the European Magnetic Resonance Award. The list of its recipients is a mirror of many major contributors to magnetic resonance basic science and imaging. The prize has become the most prestigious award in magnetic resonance beyond Europe. Details can be found elsewhere on this website.

Nominations for the European Magnetic Resonance Award 2010 can be made by anybody in medical imaging or related fields. The deadline for proposals is 31 January 2010. Proposals should be made using the electronic form on this website.

C Hanns-Joachim Weinmann Dies

The magnetic resonance community lost one of its pioneers on 4 December 2009, when Hanns-Joachim Weinmann, a long-time collaborator of Schering in Berlin, Germany (nowadays Bayer-Schering Pharma) died after a lengthy illness at the age of sixty.

Weinmann was the former head of MR imaging and x-ray research at Schering and co-developer of gadopentetate dimeglumine (Gd-DTPA, Magnevist), the world’s first commercially available MR contrast agent.

In recognition of his achievements in magnetic resonance imaging, Weinmann was awarded the 1996 European Magnetic Resonance Award.
