OHBM Conference Montreal Bringing HBS to the attention of international MRI researchers
Our data scientist Erik van Oort went this summer to the OHBM conference in Montreal (Canada) to present his HBS poster. This is a conference with many MRI experts. Erik brought HBS to the attention of these experts with whom HBS will hopefully be able to collaborate in the future.
Next week we organize our 5th and last participant event. The participants provide a lot ot their data and we believe that it is important to give them something back. During this event Kim Lammers (ex top athlete) will give a lecture with the theme: getting the best out of yourself.
In June we reached a special milestone: the 2000th lab visit. To celebrate this, we gave participant Iris a nice gift to give her brain a little extra boost. Now, 3 months later, we have had 2140 lab visits.
