The Center for the Development of Functional Imaging at the University of Alabama at Birmingham was established in 2002 to advance the visual and neural sciences using new technologies to better understand brain function. The Center uses functional magnetic resonance imaging and more invasive physiological techniques synergistically to appreciate both overall brain activity patterns and the role of specific neuronal circuits in controlling behavior. The Center is directed by Dr. Paul Gamlin and houses a non-human primate high-field MRI system.

Non-Human Primate High-Field MRI System Director: Dr. Paul Gamlin
The Center for the Development of Functional Imaging at the Univer-
sity of Alabama at Birmingham was established by the University of Alabama Board of Trustees in 2002 to advance the visual and neural sciences. The goal of the Center is develop and exploit new technolo- gies to better understand brain function.
A primary means of accomplishing this goal is the synergistic use of
functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with more invasive physiological techniques to better understand the role of the brain in controlling behavior. This approach will allow us to appreciate both the overall patterns of brain activity and the role of specific neuronal cir- cuits as the same time.
