New Routes into the Human Brain
نویسنده
چکیده
The combination of human genetics, animal models, and induced pluripotent stem cells is likely to revolutionize our understanding of neuropsychiatric disorders, leading to new therapies and insights into how the normal human brain works. This is the territory I would explore if I were starting my research career today.

DT-MRI Tractography and its Application in Cognitive Neuroscience
Recent advancement of MRI techniques and development of new methods of image analysis have allowed us to study large neural tracts within the human brain. This is based on the principle of diffusion tensor MRI that is similar to that of diffusion-weighted imaging but takes magnitude and direction of the diffusion of water into account. Using this technique we have been able to define large neur...
