Katerina Eyre-Yerly is a postdoctoral fellow specializing in cardiac MRI research. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from the University of Toronto, followed by a Master’s degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Göttingen, where she focused on the development of cardiac vessel grafts. She later completed her PhD in Experimental Medicine at McGill University, contributing to the clinical translation of novel cardiac MR imaging techniques through research studies. During her doctoral work, she collaborated on the Multitasking framework developed at Cedars-Sinai and on oxygen-sensitive MRI techniques pioneered in Montreal.
In her current role, Katerina is advancing cardiac imaging on a low-field MRI system, with a strong focus on oxygen-sensitive imaging methods. She is also leading efforts to establish and manage a multi-centre, multi-vendor clinical trial utilizing the free-running framework sequence on a 1.5T MRI scanner. Her work bridges basic science and clinical practice, fostering collaboration between researchers and clinicians to improve patient outcomes.
