A new era for MRI: Transforming respiratory imaging

Hear how world-leading physicist Professor Jim Wild is pioneering a new way to see inside the lungs - without using radiation. He’ll share the story behind his groundbreaking "Xenon MRI" technology, which combines harmless, inhaled gas with an MRI to create unique, detailed images. You’ll learn how this safe, non-invasive method is helping doctors spot hidden lung abnormalities, leading to earlier diagnoses and better care for patients with life-altering conditions such as Cystic Fibrosis and lung disease.

Hear from Matt Charlton about the University's programme of support for aspiring entrepreneurs.
