Center for Clinical Neurosciences

Background

Welcome to the MEG/MSI Laboratory at the University of Texas

2009 ISACM Conference in Athens, Greece - September 3th-5th, 2009

The Center for Clinical Neurosciences is under the direction of Dr. Andrew C. Papanicolaou. The Center for Clinical Neurosciences research is central to the mission of the Children's Learning Institute as it contributes to the enhancement of children's lives through innovative integration of education, child development, and neuroscience models of cognition that form the backbone of our bench-to-classroom models of assessment and intervention service delivery programs. Of the approximately 20 magnetoencephalography (MEG) labs in North America, Dr. Papanicolaou's lab is the only one that has developed the capability to efficiently scan children. Current and future programs will benefit immeasurably from the application of Dr. Papanicolaou's expertise in neuroimaging to understanding neural mechanisms of normal development and recovery/reorganization of key neural networks in children with other neurologically-based disorders, such as epilepsy, traumatic brain injury, and complications of prematurity that constitute the majority of acquired disabling conditions in children.
