Sonderforschungsbereiche
SFB 656 MoBil!
The Collaborative Research Centre (SFB) 656 Molecular Cardiovascular Imaging develops new methods for visualising prevalent cardiovascular diseases. They allow for an earlier and exacter diagnosis and thus, they contribute to avoiding heavy subsequent damages. Scientists from medicine, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics and computer science work together in the innovative research area.
