Brad Sutton, University of Illinois Illinois BIOE professor and technical director of Beckman’s Biomedical Imaging Center, is across the pond helping to launch the Center for Human Brain Health at the University of Birmingham, UK. Brad is shown with BRIDGE Fellow Magda Chechlacz.

This is a huge advance for biomedical imaging on campus and a long-term effort by many! Exciting things happening in MR on campus - more to come!
