Francesco Santini - ESMRMB2025 Program Chair
@mrifranz.bsky.social
Very opinionated MRI researcher. Opinions are mine, but probably should be yours too 🙂 Group leader of BAMM. (he/him) Mastοdοn: @mrifranz@mrtodon.net
Today, my dear friend and colleague Jessie made me the most thoughtful present for my birthday: a handmade cross-stitch of the #dafne logo. It was really something special!
I feel so lucky, to have such a wonderful group.

Academia is hard for everyone. But for many, for instance women, it is unnecessarily harder.

After crying "AGI!" for years, #OpenAI's next model is yet again just an incremental improvement, at the cost of ridiculous computational power. This is not the way, and all the announcements are just hype to inflate the bubble.

Hands-on #statistics workshop at @myESR #ECR2025. Again a full room! There is definitely a lot of interest in doing rigorous research! @tugbaakinci.bsky.social @pintodrad.bsky.social

Full room at the #MRSafety session at @myESR #ECR2025 organised by the MR Safety and Quality subcommittee. Happy to see so much interest in the topic!

This is an important rule when discussing with someone. Always ask "what would it take for you to change your opinion?"

Hey friends! Do you have an idea for a session for next year's #ESMRMB conference in Marseille? You can propose a session on our wiki conference lab! Organizers AND speakers will get admittance to the networking dinner for free!

Surprised, delighted, and flattered that my head is used as an unmovable rock in the #MRITogether Racing Track in the gather.town space. I can't shake off the feeling that it must be a metaphor for something, and I'm not sure I want to know for what! 😂😂😂

Such an honor and a pleasure to once again be invited to the #ESR leadership meeting in Rome. Beautiful place, I wonderful organization, and incredible professionalism.

We've all laughed at the recent #GenerativeAI fails in #Academia. But this is a symptom that the publishing system is creaking and might break soon. I've written about this in a recent commentary for European Radiology. Would be happy if you checked it out!

Even PLoS ONE, a journal that takes open science very seriously, says that “submissions…must demonstrate that the new tool achieves its intended purpose [and that it] is an improvement over existing options.” The fact that it sounds so reasonable is actually what makes it scary.

The global #openscience meeting for #MRI research is coming soon!
Join #MRITogether in December, many excellent speakers, talking about Open, reproducible, and inclusive science. It's all free and everybody is welcome!

Congratulations for all the excellent work that was highlighted today for the ESMRMB #MRITogether Award for open, reproducible, and inclusive science! It was hard to pick three to give the prize to. Looking forward to seeing the community grow even more!
