Maksym Yushchenko, Postdoc

Biography

I obtained a BSc in Information Engineering and an MSc in Electronic Engineering at the University of Padua, Italy. In the interim, I also participated in the double-degree program TIME, obtaining a French degree of Diplôme d’Ingénieur in generalist engineering after spending two years at École Centrale Paris, France. Thanks to these studies, I discovered and developed a fascination for applied quantum physics as well as for medical imaging technologies. Now, I am very happy to take advantage of my background to contribute in a practical way to the research in the multidisciplinary field of Magnetic Resonance Imaging at the AMT Center.
PhD project start: October 2017
PhD defense: February 2022

My PhD project has focused on the development of tools and methods for Magnetic Resonance Imaging and MR Elastography at a low magnetic field (≤ 0.1 T).

My activities in this project include:

•         RF coils design and building
   
•         MR sequence programming
   
•         numerical simulations
   
•         data processing and inverse problem solving
