Aston University Institute of Health and Neurodevelopment to get new child-friendly brain imaging facility
Aston University’s Institute of Health of Neurodevelopment (IHN) and Birmingham Children’s Hospital are to get a new, child-friendly magnetoencephalography (MEG) brain scanner.
A nine-strong clinical and research team led by Dr Caroline Witton, reader in psychology, was awarded an £800,000 grant from the Medical Research Council (MRC) Capital Funding for World Class Labs scheme. This has been supplemented by Aston University, giving a total budget of £2.5m to purchase the MEG scanner from French company MAG4Health and construct a new, magnetically shielded laboratory in the IHN building to house it.

MAG4Health thanks la Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes for supporting us to attend the 14th annual Traumatic Brain Injury conference which took place on May 2-3 2024 in Washington DC USA. It was a great experience to learn from experts and to meet with Physicians, Director of Traumatic Brain Injury Center, CEOs and Scientists about the current challenges to diagnose mild cases which represent 70-90% of reported Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) cases. www.tbiconference.com
