MRI: Acquisition of Research Human Imaging System for Rutgers University

主要研究仪器项目的这一奖项是为了获得一台功能性磁共振成像扫描仪，该扫描仪将被安置在罗格斯大学纽瓦克主校区的分子和行为神经科学中心。它将提供给罗格斯大学所有三个校区（纽瓦克、新玩法和卡姆登）的研究人员以及附近机构的研究人员，特别是新泽西理工学院、新泽西医学和牙科大学以及凯斯勒基金会研究中心。 该扫描仪将使研究大脑行为关系的工作得以进行。所解决的具体问题围绕六个研究集群组织：1）神经经济学，2）学习，记忆和可塑性，3）人类发展，4）感知和感觉，5）精神疾病的机制，以及6）计算神经成像。将这些集群联系起来的首要主题是，它们都与学习科学广泛相关。

This award from the Major Research Instrumentation program is for the acquisition of a functional magnetic resonance imaging scanner to be housed at Rutgers University main campus in Newark in the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience. It will be available to researchers from all three Rutgers campuses (Newark, New Brunswick, and Camden) as well as to those from nearby institutions, especially New Jersey Institute of Technology, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, and the Kessler Foundation Research Center. The scanner will allow work to proceed on investigating brain-behavior relationships. The specific questions addressed are organized around six clusters of research: 1) neuroeconomics, 2) learning, memory, and plasticity, 3) human development, 4) perception and sensation, 5) mechanisms of mental illness, and 6) computational neuroimaging. The overarching theme that links the clusters is that they all broadly relate to the learning sciences.
