Objective
Ph.D. students interested in learning the techniques and applications of medical functional imaging are encouraged to apply to spend periods of up to one year at the Institute for Advanced Biomedical Technologies (ITAB), University of Chieti, Italy. Candidates must be from a EU country other than Italy, or a country associated to this EU programme, and must be pursuing a Ph.D. in cardiology, internal medicine, neuroscience, physics, electronic engineering, mathematics, or computer science. The selected students will participate in the projects of one of the various research groups, working in the fields of Magnetocardiography, Magneto encephalography, Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and Digital Telethermography, and will be assigned a specific research project by the coordinator of that group. Although involved principally in the activity of one group, Marie Curie Fellows participating in the doctoral training offered by IT ABUDA will have the following benefits:
1) being deeply involved and actively participate in a research project with the opportunity to effectively use high end instrumentation for functional imaging;
2) having the opportunity of coming to a grasp with all different interdisciplinary aspects of a single technique;
3) being able to compare different functional imaging techniques, available at the same site;
4) being able to integrate different functional imaging techniques for the study of a specific physiological function or pathological state;
5) having the possibility of interacting with researchers with expertise in all the diverse methodological and applicative fields of functional imaging;
6) receive an up to date education from an interdisciplinary staff and from selected scientists from other scientific institutionsellows will also be able to interact with the others. In addition, they will attend the seminars and courses of the international Ph.D. programme of ITAB "Biomedical Technologies and Functional Imaging". In each group, the research activity focuses on various aspects of functional imaging including experiment design, data collection, data analysis, and methods of data analysis. Recommended duration of stays: 6 to 12 months. Candidates should have completed at least 1 year of Ph.D. training at their institution, and have satisfied all formal course requirements. The above research techniques are interdisciplinary, and require the combination of expertise in diverse fields such as mathematics and statistics, superconductivity, NMR, electronics, computer science, neurology, cardiology, internal
