Short Course Description
In the last 25 years Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has become a widely used tool in the neuroscience. The ability to map the structure and function of the human brain non-invasively makes it possible to conduct a variety of studies in the fields of medicine, biology and psychology. Imaging research includes many disciplines, starting from technological developments in the field of engineering and exact sciences, image processing routines and statistics, clinical uses in the field of neurology, the development of non-invasive biomarkers and psychological applications in several cognitive domains.
The technology in neuroimaging is developing rapidly in the last years. In this course we will review the latest advances in the field and will present different applications. The course will be based on frontal lectures and presentations of state-of-the-art scientific papers.
Prerequisites: Course in MRI basics or fMRI analysis
