This four year programme of research and training has strong industrial support and is highly multi-disciplinary, enabling students from a wide range of quantitative scientific backgrounds to focus on areas of research which include light microscopy, MRI, magnetoencephalography, positron emission topography and image analysis.A major advantage of the programme is that you are not required to choose the substantive DPhil project until after the initial taught training phase, allowing a more informed choice of research project to be made.

Course programme
The first seven months of the course are devoted to acquiring advanced theoretical and technical skills that form the backbone of biomedical imaging, drawing from the engineering, mathematical, physical, chemical and biological sciences through a combination of intensive lecture courses and project work. Each taught module lasts for either one, two or three weeks and is assessed using a method appropriate to the course, for example, presentations, group assignments or assessed written work. This will be complemented with relevant research and communication skills training throughout the four years of the programme.
- DPhil in Engineering Science
- DPhil in Computer Science
- DPhil in Biochemistry
- DPhil in Organic Chemistry
- DPhil in Inorganic Chemistry
- DPhil in Clinical Neuroscience
- DPhil in Medical Sciences
- DPhil in Oncology
- DPhil in Mathematics
After completion of the taught training phase, two exploratory research projects of ten weeks duration each are undertaken, at least one of which will be in the institution to which you are admitted (Oxford or Nottingham). The DPhil project then follows, also based primarily in the host institution.
The Biomedical Imaging CDT will create the next generation of industrial, healthcare and academic leaders equipped with excellent interdisciplinary skills within this vital field.
