Contracts with Industry

In the context of the Neurinfo imaging platform, a partnership between Siemens SAS - Healthcare and University of Rennes 1 was signed in October 2011 for 5 years. This contract defines the terms of the collaboration between Siemens and the Neurinfo platform. The Neurinfo platform is now granted access to source code and/or object code of selected MRI sequences. This a major advance in the collaboration since it will enable the development of MRI sequences on site. Besides, the Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) was grounded as a key research activity by both parties and will be the object of a strong collaboration, particularly on the sequence development side.
