Recent News

BIAC researchers collaborate with Dr. Linda Cendales in the Department of Surgery to characterize brain changes associated with hand transplantation.
BIAC has recently purchased and set up a new Vera MRI Simulator from Psychology Software Tools to replace the old mock scanner used for many years. The new mock scanner, including the new Mock testing room, can now be found in room 1812M, conveniently located beside the lockers.
Congratulations to David Madden, Ph.D., and his lab for their most recent publication! This study used graph theory to characterize structural and functional brain connectivity, the change in functional connectivity between rest and task states, and the relation of brain connectivity to age-related differences in attention (visual search).
Congratulations to Tina Zhao, a BIAC Clinic Research Intern and core member of the Madden Lab, who has been accepted for graduate study in the PhD program in the Department of Psychology of the University of Washington, Seattle, for the fall 2024 semester. Tina will be in the Cognition and Perception area and received a Provost Fellowship Award to begin her studies.
