Functional MRI studies
We have a strong record of conducting functional MRI studies.
The department has a longstanding, strong record of conducting fMRI studies of patient, relative and control groups, particularly of language function in both health and disease.
In addition, a recent focus has been on emotion processing, motivation and associative learning in psychiatric disorders.
