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

• Case Ysbrand van der Werf

  Individual differences in white matter diffusion affect sleep oscillations

  The characteristic oscillations of the sleeping brain, spindles and slow waves, show trait-like, within-subject stability and a remarkable interindividual variability that correlates with functionally relevant measures such as memory performance and intelligence.
• 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.
