New comprehensive functional MRI measurements point to the need to update models for assessing brain white matter activity and physiology.

Vanderbilt investigators have discovered that functional MRI detects neural activity in both gray and white matter in the brain, suggesting new ways to investigate diseases such as Alzheimer’s and multiple sclerosis.

A new brain imaging study challenges conventional wisdom about how and where in the brain the processing of visual orientation information first occurs.

Identification of brain regions involved in processing sights and sounds may offer insights into disorders like autism and dyslexia.

Vanderbilt University has emerged as one of the nation’s leading academic centers in neuroscience.

Brain deficits are not present in the early stages of schizophrenia, suggesting it may be possible to delay or prevent the development of brain abnormalities.
