CALLOSAL THICKNESS IN MUSICIANS

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Corpus callosum morphometry will be assessed in musicians and non-musicians. The corpus callosum region will be delineated manually following a defined tracing protocol. Computational surface-based methods to encode callosal thickness at high spatial resolution will then be applied to compare groups and to investigate correlations with markers of musicianship.
