Continuous technological development represents an indispensable component of the recent remarkable advancements in the state of our knowledge of human brain function. Magnetic resonance is a field which provides a number of versatile non-invasive methodologies applicable to the analysis of human specific brain function. The Department of Biological Magnetic Resonance focuses on the research, development and education of magnetic resonance technologies as well as the research and education of human brain function based on integrated knowledge of advanced engineering and non-linear computational analysis.

œICS analysis of SMI
Four independent subunits in the primary sensorio-motor cortex were clearly distinguished. The resolution is comparable to that of primate electrophysiology.
Simulation Schematic
œSimulation of brain organization
A heat convection scheme is shown to reproduce the shape of the brain. Nonlinear numerical simulation is one of our major strategies for tackling the complexity of the brain.
