Molecule to Cognition MED probe

MED64 system available for the multiarray recording equipment brain slices or cultured nerve cells pass signals up to 64 channels at once in the recording can be. The advantages of this equipment that can not be any other recording system in the brain slices in the circuit is useful for research.

System & Cognitive fMRI · Eye tracker

State-of-the-art 3T MRI machine (Siemens MAGNETOM Trio, A Tim System 3T with 12 and 32-channel coil) allows us to measure human brain activity underlying various sensory, motor, perceptual, and cognitive behaviors. In addition, high-resolution MR-compatible visual stimulation goggle with eye tracking and response recording devices are available in our MRI center. Our MRI machine is also equipped with newly developed protocols and software including zoomed EPI and online motion correction algorithm for real-time fMRI. Other facilities include 3 psychophysics rooms for visual experiment as well as an eye tracker (EyeLink 1000, SR Research) and several haploscopes for dichoptic visual stimulation.

System & Cognitive Stereotaxic surgery · Neuralynx · 8-core

Ⅰ. Neuralynx Electrophysiological Data Acquisition System - Neuralynx cheetah system allows collecting electrophysiological signals through multiple channels (expandable up to 1024 channels). For example, it is possible to carry out electrophysiologically recording multiple single unit responses simultaneously in freely behaving animals.
Ⅱ. Eight-core machine - A computer with eight CPUs working in parallel with large memory capacity to analyze a large dataset such as electrophysiological dataset recorded in parallel from multiple channels.
Ⅲ. Stereotaxic surgical system - Stereotaxic surgical systems are used to surgically target a specific brain region by putting the animal’s head in a multi-dimensional coordinates. For example, certain brain regions can be lesioned or electrodes can be implanted in a specific brain area through stereotaxic neurosurgery.
