Berufserfahrung von João Duarte
Bis heute 10 Jahre und 8 Monate, seit Okt. 2013
Researcher (FNS Ambizione fellow)
Laboratory for Functional and Metabolic Imaging, EPFL
Investigation of brain energy metabolism and non-invasive biomarkers in diabetic encephalopathy.
5 Jahre, Okt. 2008 - Sep. 2013
Researcher (Premier assistant)
Dep. Radiology, Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne
Enrolled in the study of energy metabolism in the rodent brain using in vivo 1H and 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) at high field, aiming at determining metabolic pathways that support glutamatergic and GABAergic neurotransmission and discovering neurochemical markers of brain dysfunction upon acute hypoglycaemia and redox dysregulation.
