RESEARCH TOPICS
Functional MRI based on the blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) contrast is a powerful tool to investigate the functioning of the brain non-invasively with a high spatial resolution. Electroencephalography measures brain activity with a high temporal, but low spatial resolution and can also be applied non-invasively.
Nadja Van Camp investigates the functioning of the rat brain by introducing different stimulation paradigms (PTZ administration, forepaw stimulation …) and combining the strengths off the two above mentioned techniques.
