Summary
Research of the Biomedical NMR unit focuses on the further development of magnetic resonance imaging and advanced applications in neurobiology. Pertinent approaches allow for unique insights into the structure, metabolism, and function of the intact living brain – from mouse to human. Specific projects range from novel image encoding and reconstruction techniques to animal models of neurodegenerative disease and functional assessments of neuroaxonal connectivity and cognitive information processing in humans.
