This project will develop new methods for high resolution MRI imaging of the human brain. We will assess functions of deep brain areas known as the basal ganglia that play a critical role in movement planning and co-ordination. Dysfunction within the basal ganglia is responsible for the motor impairments seen in people with Parkinson’s disease. In this project, we will examine changes in basal ganglia function and structure that lead to individual differences in movement control and learning.

这个项目将开发人脑高分辨率核磁共振成像的新方法。我们将评估被称为基底神经节的大脑深部区域的功能，基底神经节在运动计划和协调中起着关键作用。基底神经节内的功能障碍是帕金森病患者运动障碍的原因。在这个项目中，我们将研究导致运动控制和学习个体差异的基底神经节功能和结构的变化。
