The pioneering days of MRI systems were exciting times for Markus Vester (60) of Siemens Healthineers in Erlangen, and the specialist for high frequency technology has retained his passion for invention throughout his career. Most of his 370 patents are connected with the transmitting/receiving units in MRI scanners. High resolution images in the shortest-possible scan time – this is the area where Vester's research has made a valuable contribution. Integrating new technologies in an economically sensible way is another of his research responsibilities. For this work, he has won the award as Inventor of the Year 2017 in the Lifetime Achievement category. Learn more: http://www.siemens.com/inventors
