This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The aim of this proposal is to allow researchers to monitor subjects' eyes while simultaneously acquiring MRI data. First, eye tracking is a necessary experimental control for many studies. By monitoring participants' eyes, the researcher can make sure that eye movement differences are not causing differences in the fMRI signal that are attributed to perception and cognition. A second, perhaps stronger reason for combining eye tracking and fMRI are the new research questions it allows investigators to address. Currently, the eye tracker in the 3T scanner room at CMRR is not used much. The main reason being that very few people know how to use it, and the time investments for learning are high.

该子项目是利用该技术的众多研究子项目之一 资源由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 研究者 (PI) 可能已从 NIH 的另一个来源获得主要资金， 因此可以在其他 CRISP 条目中表示。列出的机构是 对于中心来说，它不一定是研究者的机构。 该提案的目的是让研究人员能够在采集 MRI 数据的同时监测受试者的眼睛。首先，眼动追踪是许多研究中必要的实验控制。通过监测参与者的眼睛，研究人员可以确保眼球运动差异不会导致由于感知和认知而导致的功能磁共振成像信号差异。将眼动追踪和功能磁共振成像结合起来的第二个或许更强有力的原因是它允许研究人员解决新的研究问题。 目前，CMRR 3T扫描仪室中的眼动仪使用不多。主要原因是懂得使用的人很少，而且学习的时间投入很高。
