Lily Qiu
MSc, HBSc
Pre-clinical MRI Technician
I work with a multidisciplinary team to establish the new 7T Preclinical MR scanner at the Biomedical Sciences Building. My research interests include the development of sex differences in the brain, the anatomy of neurodevelopmental disorders and in vivo longitudinal MR imaging methods to investigate brain development.
