Andreia Gaspar
Post-Doc Researchers
Andreia S. Gaspar completed her MSc in Biophysics and Biomedical Engineering at Faculdade de Ciências University of Lisbon in 2015, during which time she worked on improving echo-planar imaging under the supervision of Anthony N Price and Joseph V Hajnal at King’s. In 2016 she completed her MRes in Medical Imaging Sciences at King’s College London, and in 2017 she enrolled in the Biomedical Engineering Doctoral Program of Instituto Superior Técnico under the supervision of Rita G Nunes. At the Evolutionary Systems and Biomedical Engineering Lab (LaSEEB), and obtained her PhD in 2022. Her work focuses on open-source techniques and both acquisition and reconstruction methods in quantitative MRI, including the implementation of SMS methods, with the aim of improving accuracy and spatial resolution of T1 mapping techniques.
