We have a reason to celebrate! The Erwin L. Hahn Institute for MRI is turning 20, and to mark this special occasion, we warmly invite you to the Erwin L. Hahn Lecture 2025.

When: October 29th, 2025

Where: OKTOGON at the Zollverein World Heritage Site in Essen

We are particularly excited to announce that Larry Wald, the last PhD student of the institute's namesake Erwin L. Hahn, will deliver this year's keynote speech. Larry Wald teaches at the renowned Harvard Medical School and will speak on "MR technology; from elegant physics to elegant engineering and back again."

Beyond the keynote, this year's program is packed with interesting lectures and discussions around the theme "Body & Brain" – the focus of ELH.

Of course, food is not to be missed: In addition to lunch, we will also have a dinner to celebrate ELH's 20th anniversary, where we will toast to two decades of innovation and research.

The full program is now online on our website and registration is open! Participation is free, but prior registration is required. Registration closes at the end of September: https://hahn-institute.de/de/info/hahn-lecture

As in past years, the Erwin L. Hahn Lecture & Workshop will be held as a hybrid event. We also kindly ask all online participants to register in advance.
