The 14th National MR Meeting – MR2016
The 14th National MR Meeting, MR 2016, will take place on Jun 16-17, 2016, in Bergen, Norway.
Hovedinnhold
Dear MR specialist or valued corporate provider,
Registration and abstract submission is now open for MR2016, which will take place in Bergen at Grand Hotel Terminus. The dates set for the meeting are Thursday 16/6 and Friday 17/6.
Prior to the conference Bruker BioSpin is hosting a symposium. The registration for this symposium is now open.
The Norwegian Society for Magnetic Resonance has as one of its main goals to strengthen the scientific bonds between MR researchers at the universities in Norway. We encourage sharing research experience and important scientific improvements within biochemistry, organic chemistry, medical research and many other fields. We hope that as many of you as possible can join us in Bergen in June 2016 to meet new and old NMR/MRI friends.

Registrering
Oral presentation abstract submission deadline: 15th of May 2016
Poster abstract deadline: 1st of June 2016
The following sessions are planned:
- NMR in Metabolomics
- Clinical and Preclinical MRI and MRS
- NMR on Natural and Synthetic Products
- NMR applied to Material Science and Technology
- Macromolecular NMR
We encourage all the lecture holders to keep their oral presentations at a level that makes all the participants able to follow the contents and take-home messages. In addition to the five lecture sessions mentioned above there will also be a poster session where we hope that many new and promising master- and PhD students will present their work.
