THE SPINOZA CENTRE FOR NEUROIMAGING IS THE AMSTERDAM IMAGING CORE FOR 3T AND 7T MRI

• Case

  The role of the central brain clock in the pathophysiology of insulin resistance

  Esther Speksnijder uses 7T MRI to study the role of the central brain clock in the pathophysiology of insulin resistance. For this, she scans the same participants four times in 24 hours.
• Research Methods

  Methods

  MRI experiments provide the researcher with an impossible amount of data. In order to distill meaningful information a progressive series of reduction methods are applied to filter out the desired parameters (and ignore others).

• Participate in research

  We investigate the ways in which we reach decisions, what happens when we are sleeping, or how the brain changes with aging. We are looking for people who are willing to undergo MRI sessions to help us in our research.

  I want to participate
