Welcome to the Department of Imaging Neuroscience, home of the Functional Imaging Laboratory (FIL)
Over the past 25 years, the FIL has pioneered the development and application of imaging techniques to advance our understanding of the human brain. It continues to play a leading role in progressing and transforming research in many areas of cognitive and clinical neuroscience.
Scanning
Human neuroimaging allows us to non-invasively investigate brain structure and function.
Reseach
Human brain functions we study include; Action, Decision Making, Emotion, Hearing, Language, Memory, Navigation, Seeing, Self awareness, Social Behaviour and the Bayesian Brain.
Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM)
Understanding how the human brain normally generates our behaviour, thoughts and feelings helps us to identify what goes wrong in neurological and psychiatric disorders and how these disorders might best be treated. Read more about our clinical impact.
Volunteers needed
Would you like to take part in one of our experiments?
We are looking for volunteers 18 years and over to take part in our exciting neuroscientific research
Events
These include our weekly brain meetings, in addition to SPM courses held bi-annually
