# Biomedical and Brain Imaging Core

> **NIH NIH P20** · DELAWARE STATE UNIVERSITY · 2021 · $403,086

## Abstract

The overarching scientific goal of the Delaware Center for Neuroscience Research is to support
and bring together neuroscientists working at multiple scales, from human subjects to animal models, to
improve our understanding of the dynamic function of the human brain. The University of Delaware has
made a significant investment into building a capability in human neuroimaging—purchasing a cutting edge
3T MRI scanner with advanced capabilities to map brain structure and function, and the establishment of
the Center for Biomedical and Brain Imaging, which is planned to expand to encompass small animal MRI
and other imaging technologies. By combining animal and human neuroimaging, our Core will serve to
bring together biologists, psychologists, kinesiologists and others who image the human brain, with
molecular, cellular and behavioral neuroscientists who use animal models, and will support collaborations
focusing on multi-scale investigations of the architecture and functional activity of the brain. To achieve
these objectives, there are three specific aims: 1) To provide state-of-the-art neuroimaging of human
subjects and rodent models to serve the research needs of COBRE-supported investigators. 2) To provide
neuroscience researchers in Delaware with consultation and coordination, technical assistance, and
educational opportunities in functional neuroimaging in humans and animals in support of experimental
design, data acquisition and analysis. 3) To advance cutting-edge neuroimaging research and grow the user
base in Delaware by serving as a resource for current investigators and recruitment of outstanding new
hires.
