Campus Club
8th of February, the University of Antwerp opened its doors for the first edition of the Campus Club, a unique opportunity for students from the sixth year of secondary education to bridge the gap between secondary and university education. A day filled with more than 50 trial lessons and workshops, carefully tailored to the attainment levels of the third grade, offered the students an unprecedented glimpse into the future of their academic and professional paths. The Bio-imaging Lab opened its doors to welcome 60 students for a workshop on "imaging the brain"
Science for Everyone: Dag van de Wetenschap
On the Day of Science Antwerp, the colleagues of Imec VisionLab, the Bio-Imaging Lab and the μNEURO Research Excellence Center of took you to the wonderful world of medical imaging. How are X-rays different from visible light? And how can we use those rays to make a cross-section of your body? What does an MRI scan have to do with water and magnets? And what do bats have in common with an ultrasound machine? Together, we will found out how each of these techniques maps different parts of the body, and show you how doctors and veterinarians use them on both people and animals from the ZOO!
