The Magnetic Resonance Biomedical Engineering Lab (MRBEL), led by Dr. Joseph Rispoli, develops and applies novel technology and methodologies to better exploit magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy for clinical and research use. Affiliated with the Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering and the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University, MRBEL is housed in the Martin Jischke Hall of Biomedical Engineering (MJIS) Building. MRBEL collaborates with investigators across Purdue’s disciplinary schools, and the Purdue MRI Facility provides access to 3T human scanners and a 7T animal scanner. For human 7T research, MRBEL collaborates with other institutions including the University of Pittsburgh and the University of Iowa. 

 

Our lab prides itself on it’s outreach and engagement activities, particularly through Purdue organizations. Many of our lab members are actively involved in the Purdue Association for Magnetic Resonance (PAMR), working to increase magnetic resonance knowledge and collaboration across campus. PAMR also brings science to the Greater Lafayette community through an outreach relationship with Imagination Station.
