In developing the call for the residency project STEAM Imaging VI, I sought to create a space in which the abstract processes of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) could be experienced differently—not only explained or demonstrated, but practically explored, sensorially shared, and critically questioned. MRI, a radiation-free imaging technique, uses magnetic fields and precisely timed radio-frequency pulses to produce three-dimensional views of internal structures. Its underlyi

The upper secondary school specialization ‘Digital Medicine’ at the Oberschule am Waller Ring successfully launched this summer. Twenty-five students are participating in the first round, ten of whom come from other districts such as Schwachhausen, Horn-Lehe, Bremen-Nord, and Bremen city centre, Germany. This diversity of backgrounds and perspectives is perceived as very enriching in the classroom. On 23 and 24 January, interested school students can find out more about the

International Fraunhofer Talent School Bremen: STEAM Imaging VI It has been a true pleasure to co-develop this year’s STEAM Imaging workshop for the International Fraunhofer Talent School in Bremen. The workshop brought together researchers, Edinburgh College of Art PhD student and artist–physicist Gregory Alliss ( www.gregoryalliss.com ), and upper secondary school students for a deep dive into the world of MRI imaging and MR sequence development. The shared goal was to open

Research-driven, Collaborative, and Creative Science Engagement I am honored that my transdisciplinary work over many years has been featured as one of four national case studies in the publication Fostering Transdisciplinarity & Participatory Research and Public Engagement with Research by the Stifterverband der Deutschen Wissenschaft, authored by Mhairi Stewart and Victoria Shennan (Museum für Naturkunde Berlin / Berlin School of Public Engagement and Open Science).
