CBU neuroimaging studies are carried out on site using a Siemens 3T Tim Trio magnetic resonance imaging (or MRI) scanner, which is wholly dedicated to studies in Cognitive Neuroscience. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) studies are also perfomed using an Elekta Neuromag MEG machine [http://imaging.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/meg MEG Lab], and Electroencephalography (EEG) studies using a Neuroscan system. Additional functional neuroimaging facilities are provided by our partners at the [http://www.wbic.cam.ac.uk/ Wolfson Brain Imaging Centre], Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge. The centre has two scanners: one uses [http://www.wbic.cam.ac.uk/facilities.html?fl=28&flc1=2 Positron Emission Tomography] (or PET), and the other uses [http://www.wbic.cam.ac.uk/facilities.html?fl=28&flc4=2 fMRI]. The CBU now constitutes one of the largest concentrations of cognitive scientists and neuroscientists on a single site anywhere in the world, with nearly 100 active scientists, students and research staff. A priority in the CBU research strategy over the last 5 years has been to develop a strong research programme in neuroimaging, working closely with the Wolfson Brain Imaging Centre, and more than half of the scientific staff and students are actively involved in neuroimaging projects. From emotions and memories to language and learning, functional neuroimaging is being applied in many different areas of Cognitive Neuroscience. In many cases, this research relies upon support from healthy [http://www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/volunteer/ volunteers] although neuroimaging studies are also being conducted in various clinical populations, including depression, anxiety, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.||

News :- The CBU MEG Facility is installed and soon to be open for studies The CBU fMRI Facility began operations in December 2005 and is already providing high-field (3T) parallel imaging facilities and support to the cognitive neuroscience community, Cambridge-wide, via the first Siemens 3T Tim Trio in the UK, which is located on site. With its high speed data network and over 100 terabytes of data storage space to support functional neuroimaging, the MRC CBU now has one of the most advanced systems for the acquisition and analysis of functional neuroimaging data sets in the world. In addition, a new MEG scanner has been installed in late 2006; we are currently doing pilo testing before expected full availability in March 2007.
