In 2013, these sites formed a network to facilitate and harmonize the research being conducted at the different sites and make this technology available to a larger community of researchers and clinicians not only within Germany, but also worldwide. The German Ultrahigh Field Imaging (GUFI) network has defined a strategic goal to establish a 14 Tesla whole-body human MRI system as a national research resource in Germany as the next progression in magnetic field strength. This paper summarizes the history of this initiative, the current status, the motivation for pursuing MR imaging and spectroscopy at such a high magnetic field strength, and the technical and funding challenges involved. It focuses on the scientific and science policy process from the perspective in Germany, and is not intended to be a comprehensive systematic review of the benefits and technical challenges of higher field strengths. 001006662 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-5253$$a5253 - Neuroimaging (POF4-525)$$cPOF4-525$$fPOF IV$$x0 001006662 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef, Journals: juser.fz-juelich.de 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aQuick, Harald H.$$b1 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSpeck, Oliver$$b2 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aBock, Michael$$b3 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aDoerfler, Arnd$$b4 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aForsting, Michael$$b5 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aHennig, Jürgen$$b6 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aIttermann, Bernd$$b7 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aMöller, Harald E.$$b8 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aNagel, Armin M.$$b9 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aNiendorf, Thoralf$$b10 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aRemy, Stefan$$b11 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSchaeffter, Tobias$$b12 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aScheffler, Klaus$$b13 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSchlemmer, Heinz-Peter$$b14 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSchmitter, Sebastian$$b15 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aSchreiber, Laura$$b16 001006662 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)131794$$aShah, N.
