Special issue for the International Conference on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Imaging of Biological Systems (EPR-2017)

摘要

The International Conference on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Imaging of Biological Systems (EPR-2017) was held on 16 July 2017 through 22 July 2017, at Lakeview Resort Conference Center in Morgantown, West Virginia, USA. The meeting has been organised and hosted by the In vivo Multifunctional Magnetic Resonance center, Health Sciences Center, and Department of Biochemistry, School of Medicine, West Virginia University. Nearly 150 participants from 12 countries presented recent innovations, developments, and applications of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR)-related technologies to study the biological processes with an emphasis on human health. These included recent advances in instrumentation, imaging and coimaging techniques, spin trapping and spin labelling, and in vivo applications in the preclinical and clinical settings [1].
