Carolyn Mountford

NIF Board Member

 

Professor Mountford and her team are currently working to improve MR spectroscopy technology and broaden its medical application. This work has already resulted in techniques used by research centres and hospitals for patients with cancer, brain tumours, and neurologic and psychological disorders.

One of Prof Mountford’s programs has developed a way to monitor women at high risk for breast cancer identifying metabolic deregulations in their breast tissue that precede tumour growth.

She brings extensive experience and knowledge in leading multidisciplinary programs and translation of imaging technology and making them available worldwide.
