The Human Brain Imaging Facility

  The Human Brain Imaging Lab in the Department is directed by Dr James Fallon. The lab uses a systems neuroanatomical approach to identify neural circuitry underlying the functional dynamics in brain function and dysfunction.

Current projects include study of the neuroanatomical and functional correlates of aging, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, mental retardation, intelligence, personality, depression and drug abuse.

The Lab works in close collaboration with laboratories that generate positron emission tomography (PET), functional MRI (fMRI), SPECT, EEG, and other primary imaging data.

The lab is equipped with SUN, PC, and Mac work stations and is linked to other imaging labs in UCI, UCLA, and Mt Sinai. The lab is outfitted with commercial, proprietary and in-house programs for comprehensive co-registration, dynamic 3-d reconstruction, statistical analytical, correlation, path, and thin spline analyses.
