Photo Album: MRI Installation

Crews deliver a new MRI scanner to the McGovern Institute on July 23, 2013. The scanner is expected to be fully operational by the fall, and will be used for a wide range of studies on brain function, in both children and adults.


Controlling genes with light

Although human cells have an estimated 20,000 genes, only a fraction of those are turned on at any given time, depending on the cell’s needs — which can change by the minute or hour. To find out what those genes are doing, researchers need tools that can manipulate their status on similarly short timescales. That […]
