MARIE POIRIER-QUINOT

Marie Poirier-Quinot received her Ph.D. in physics from the Université Paris Sud, Orsay (France) in 2004. In 2005, she held a postdoctoral position at the Medical school of Harvard in the Brigham and Women’s Hospital (Boston, USA) where she worked on MR Relaxography. In 2005 she obtained a permanent teaching position at the Université Paris Sud associated to U2R2M research unit. Her research activities are in the field of instrumental and methodological development for Magnetic Resonance micro Imaging. One part of her work was more specifically focused on the development of highly sensitivity NMR detection systems incorporating cutting edge technologies such as high temperature superconductors or microtechnological fabrication processes. The other main part of her activity is the tissue characterization, particularly the detection of labeled cells in different media (in vivo, biodegradable scaffolds etc…). In addition to her research and teaching activities, she is Vice President of the Physics Department of UFR d’Orsay. She is part of the officers of the associations of GERM (Groupement d’Etudes de Résonance Magnétique) and SFRMBM (Société Française de Résonance Magnétique en Biologie et en Médecine).
