We investigate how the human brain generates behaviour, thoughts and feelings and how to use this knowledge to help patients with neurological and psychiatric disorders.

What is human neuroimaging?
Human neuroimaging allows us to non-invasively investigate brain structure and function.

How does human neuroimaging make a difference?
Understanding how the human brain normally generates our behaviour, thoughts and feelings helps us to identify what goes wrong in neurological and psychiatric disorders and how these disorders might best be treated.

Statistical Parametric Mapping
Our leading software for analysing neuroimaging data was developed at FIL.
