Oct 9, 2021 · It's people like Peter who have helped to make this Russell Group uni world class, and put Nottingham on the map in the process. From failing his eleven-plus exams and leaving school at fifteen, to being the only Notts scientist to receive a Nobel Prize for his contribution to MRI research, Mansfield’s story is one of sheer grit and determination to succeed against all odds.
Peter Mansfield. Sir Peter Mansfield FRS [1][2] (9 October 1933 – 8 February 2017) [3] was an English physicist who was awarded the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, shared with Paul Lauterbur, for discoveries concerning Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Mansfield was a professor at the University of Nottingham. [4][5][6][7][8][9]

Feb 3, 2021 · In 1991 Peter's research lab moved to a new purpose-built site that later became known as the Sir Peter Mansfield Imaging Centre. It took delivery of the first 3 T whole-body magnet from Oxford Magnet Technology, and, continuing the tradition of in-house development, work began to build a dedicated high field imaging system based on EPI.
