Transcript
CHIROPRACTIC RESEARCH SEMINARS
You are invited to a Chiropractic Department seminar:
Basic Principles of Magnetoencephalography (MEG) as a Brain Imaging
Technique
Presented by Dr Graciela Tesan, PhD
Tuesday, 19 October, 1-2pm, in E8A room 280 (Biology tearoom)
This talk will provide an overview of this state-of-the-art brain imaging technique. MEG is a non-invasive technique to study
cognitive functions and their disorders in both adults and children. MEG can measure the faint magnetic fields generated by
large numbers of neurons in the cortex, providing millisecond temporal accuracy. We will discuss the neural basis of MEG,
followed by a description of MEG instrumentation, experimental protocols and data analysis. We will also review some MEG
experiments performed at the KIT-Macquarie Brain Research Laboratory (MACCS, Macquarie University).
