Rami is involved in the OutLabMRI project to develop methods to measure low water flux in tree xylem and phloem using an NMR-MOUSE sensor. The project uses a portable unilateral magnet with a low magnetic field, enabling in vivo measurements on the trees.

The xylem and phloem are vital components of a plant's vascular system, responsible for transporting water, nutrients, and other essential substances throughout the plant.

Understanding the dynamics of water content and flow within these vascular tissues is essential for a better understanding of tree physiological processes, such as water absorption, transpiration, and nutrient distribution.
