Probing Brain Metabolism in vivo with Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy: Techniques and Applications

Our speaker, Dr. Jamie Near has applied MRS widely to psychiatric and neurologic disorders and to normal brain function. This includes work in neurodevelopmental disorders (Tourette’s, Fragile X,…), in neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer’s, ALS), in depression (suicide, ECT), in stroke rehab and migraine, and in skill-acquisition, visual sensitivity, and time-perception (in MRS/MEG and MRS/fMRI studies).
