Neuroscience Center and Neuroimaging Research Center

The Neuroscience Center and Neuroimaging Research Center at Dartmouth focuses on how advanced imaging technology can help detection and assessment of early neurological disease. Key research objectives include enhanced understanding of basic disease processes, recognizing risk factors, and identifying mechanisms of treatment among prevalent brain disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, traumatic brain injury (TBI), multiple sclerosis (MS), epilepsy, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and drug addiction. Special emphasis is placed on imaging of the brain as it correlates to cognitive, emotional and behavioral processes relevant to early diagnosis, patient characterization and treatment monitoring.
