Week 4 Applied fMRI, Diffusion Tractography
There is enormous subtlety to the design of pyschophysical and psychological studies made more complex by fitting the experiments into the constrained environment of the MR instrument, the limitations of the BOLD signal and the practical problems of time.

Dr. Simpson is a leading expert in the use of scalp electrophysiology (EEG and MEG) to explore the dynamical processes of the human brain, and the integration of activity across cortex in complex human behaviors. Notably, the MEG instrument also uses the SQUID technology
Konstantin Penanen, together with Inseob Hahn and Byeong Ho Eom, have created a highly unusual MR imaging instrument that collects data in a magnetic field less than that of the earth. The tool uses Superconductin QUantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) that detect the magnetic resonance imaging signal by direct magnetometry, rather than by induction.

Week 6 PET and TMS
Positron Emission Tomography was the first tomographic means available to explore neural activity in humans. Though this use was made much less common with the advent of fMRI, PET has many tricks up its sleeve. In particular, the technology allows incomparable sensitivity in the localization specific molecular species.
Transcranial Magnetostimulation is fundamentally different than the other technologies we have explored, in that it is used specifically to alter ongoing brain activity. While not exactly an imaging method, the TMS instrument is image-guided and uses tomographic placement.
