Abstract:
This mini-workshop is an opportunity to bring together Munich researchers in the field of respiratory research and x-ray imaging. The aim is to share results and discuss new directions in lung imaging in the context of biomedical research. The recent installation of the Munich Compact Light Source (MuCLS) in particular raises new possibilities in both high-resolution and dynamic imaging.

The workshop will begin with a tour of the MuCLS in the IMETUM building at 1.30pm, with talks in the TUM-IAS building from 2pm to 5pm, followed by an opportunity for discussions over drinks and snacks.
