CUBRIC provides access to state-of-the-art brain scanning technologies, including structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI and fMRI), electro- and magneto-encephalography (EEG and MEG), and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
| 7 Tesla MRI Scanner |
Siemens Magnetom System |
Siemens 7 Tesla Magnetom system which is based on an Agilent 7T/830 actively shielded magnet. The system is equipped with 70 mT/m gradients, Siemens’ parallel transmit technology (pTx Step 2.3), and has multi-nuclear capability to take full advantage of the high field strength. |
| 3 Tesla MRI Scanner |
Siemens Prisma |
The Prisma is the most advanced research 3T scanner currently available, featuring 80 mT/m gradients and up to 128 RF receive channels. |
| Microstructure MRI Scanner |
Siemens. |
This advanced system features 300 mT/m gradient coils which are typically four times stronger than those found in conventional MR systems. This allows researchers to probe tissue microstructure to much finer detail. |
| EEG 128 Channel |
BioSemi |
Active and Passive electrode set up. |
| Transcranial magnetic stimulation |
Magstim. |
Includes multiple systems for repetitive and patterned offline protocols (including theta-burst stimulation), paired-pulse stimulation to measure GABAergic and glutamatergic neurophysiology and specialised technology for concurrent TMS and 3T MRI. |
| High Performance Cluster |
