Organization

Lund University Bioimaging Centre (LBIC) is a unit within the Centre for Research Infrastructure in Health and Sciences (CRI) at the Medical Faculty, Lund University. LBIC is under the leadership of a director, co-director and a head of unit.  

LBIC is made up of five technology platforms, each managed by a platform coordinator.

  • Microscopy: Sebastian Wasserstrom
  • Preclinical Nuclear Medicine: Rita Gidlöf
  • Preclinical 9.4 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Michael Gottschalk
  • Clinical 1.5/3 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Pia Sundgren
  • National 7 Tesla Facility: Karin Markenroth Bloch

Scientific Advisory Board

LBIC has a scientific advisory board, with competences reflecting the equipment and bioimaging techniques represented by each platform.
