MIDLANDS ENGINE HEALTH Focus on MedTech Sir Peter Mansfield Imaging Centre The Sir Peter Mansfield Imaging Centre (SPMIC) was formed in 2015 with an award of £7.7 million funding from the MRC Clinical Research Capabilities & Technologies Initiative and £1.7 million of matched University of Nottingham funding. The vision has been to create a centre that will drive the development and exploitation of medical imaging in experimental medicine and translational medicine, based on our international leadership in physics development and clinical imaging. The SPMIC combines strengths in physics and medicine to provide a single platform for medical imaging activity in Nottingham, serving more than 100 academic and research staff. The Centre builds on the University of Nottingham’s unique track record of research in biomedical imaging stretching back to Sir Peter Mansfield’s pioneering work in developing MRI in the 1970s, for which he was Professor Richard Bowtell, Head of The Sir Peter awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine Mansfield Imaging Centre in 2003. Researchers at the Centre lead national “We strongly focus on commercialisation of our initiatives, such as the UK Renal Imaging Network work and two spin-out companies have been and the UK7T Network, and have been prominent formed in the last six months to exploit our recent contributors to national and international initiatives, research developments: Neurotherapeutics Ltd will such as BioBank, IMAGEN and the Human market a wearable neuromodulation device Connectome Project.

Peter Mansfield
SNAP-SHOT MRI Nobel Lecture, December 8, 2003 by Peter Mansfield Sir Peter Mansfield Magnetic Resonance Centre, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nottingham, Nottingham, NG7 2RD, U.K. INTRODUCTION The topic of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) started for us at Nottingham in the early summer of 1972. During a discussion with one of my graduate stu- dents, Peter Grannell and my post-doc Dr Allan Garroway, concerning mul- tiple-pulse line narrowing experiments in solids, the idea occurred to me to use the line narrowing technique as a means of effectively removing dipolar interactions in a material like CaF2 and at the same time impose an external linear gradient on the sample thus broadening the line shape to reveal the atomic or molecular structure within the sample. It soon became apparent, however, even with the achievable narrowed line- widths of around 1 Hz for CaF2, corresponding to a line width reduction of 3 ϫ 104, that the residual line width was still too broad using practical external gradients to resolve the atomic structure in a single crystal of CaF2. Despite this setback, work continued with artificial one-dimensional lattices made up of several thin plates of camphor. Peter Grannell and I continued this work during the course of 1972 and it resulted finally in a paper presented at the First Specialized Colloque Ampère, Krakow in 1973 (1). Formal publication appeared shortly after (2). These papers emphasized the Fourier transform approach used, even though the images of the camphor stacks were one-dimensional. It was clear that we had made our task much more difficult by choosing to work with solids.

Close to the Edge: Co-Authorship Proximity of Nobel Laureates in Physiology Or Medicine, 1991 - 2010, to Cross-Disciplinary Brokers
Close to the edge: Co-authorship proximity of Nobel laureates in Physiology or Medicine, 1991 - 2010, to cross-disciplinary brokers Chris Fields 528 Zinnia Court Sonoma, CA 95476 USA fi[email protected] January 2, 2015 Abstract Between 1991 and 2010, 45 scientists were honored with Nobel prizes in Physiology or Medicine. It is shown that these 45 Nobel laureates are separated, on average, by at most 2.8 co-authorship steps from at least one cross-disciplinary broker, defined as a researcher who has published co-authored papers both in some biomedical discipline and in some non-biomedical discipline. If Nobel laureates in Physiology or Medicine and their immediate collaborators can be regarded as forming the intuitive “center” of the biomedical sciences, then at least for this 20-year sample of Nobel laureates, the center of the biomedical sciences within the co-authorship graph of all of the sciences is closer to the edges of multiple non-biomedical disciplines than typical biomedical researchers are to each other. Keywords: Biomedicine; Co-authorship graphs; Cross-disciplinary brokerage; Graph cen- trality; Preferential attachment Running head: Proximity of Nobel laureates to cross-disciplinary brokers 1 1 Introduction It is intuitively tempting to visualize scientific disciplines as spheres, with highly produc- tive, well-funded intellectual and political leaders such as Nobel laureates occupying their centers and less productive, less well-funded researchers being increasingly peripheral. As preferential attachment mechanisms as well as the economics of employment tend to give the well-known and well-funded more collaborators than the less well-known and less well- funded (e.g.
