Australia's advanced imaging network. Enabling imaging science to unlock solutions to major challenges. National Imaging Facility is enabled by the Australian Government's National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (#NCRIS) anif.org.au
Many national research infrastructures are distributed throughout Australia’s universities, making it more complex for researchers to securely access the data and compute they need. We are currently exploring this complex arrangement with our Trust and Identity partner, @nifaustralia.bsky.social.
QIMR Berghofer researchers are developing an AI-enabled device to enhance the effectiveness of transcranial magnetic stimulation (#TMS) therapy for major depressive disorder.
Proud to support this ground-breaking work at Herston Imaging Research Facility.
