Major Research Equipment

The core infrastructure of THINK consists of cutting-edge major research equipment: a 3T human MRI, a 9.4T animal MRI, a High-Performance-Computing Cluster, a multiphoton microscope, and a live cell imaging microscope. The major research equipment facilitates imaging on overlapping levels of description: from neurons over neural networks in humans and animals to the organism’s behavior. Bringing together this research infrastructure in a single facility is key to conducting collaborative research in highly interdisciplinary teams that break boundaries between fields and research groups. In addition, the facility provides multiple laboratories, amongst others for electrophysiological and behavioral studies, EEG and virtual reality.
