About the Authors

Dr. Cornelia (Corree) Laule is a physicist who has been involved with nuclear magnetic resonance and magnetic resonance imaging research for more than 25 years. She completed a postdoctoral fellowship in neuropathology focusing on MRI pathology correlation studies in multiple sclerosis brain tissue. She has been a faculty member at the University of British Columbia since 2013. Dr. Laule’s main interests are the development, validation, and application of quantitative magnetic resonance methods for brain and spinal cord imaging with emphasis on myelin, axons, and inflammation.

Dr. John D. Port received his BS in electrical engineering and computer science from MIT in 1986, then attended the University of Illinois at Chicago for his MD and PhD training. He completed his radiology residency and fellowship at Johns Hopkins Hospital in 2000 and has been working at Mayo Clinic since. Dr. Port’s main interests are the applications of novel magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging techniques to numerous psychiatric and neurological diseases, including demyelinating disorders.
