Abstract

This proposal aims to establish a base for one of the MRCs attached to the ClnAPCe program for studies in humans having as their base neuroimaging techniques of high field MR. The proposing group will be responsible for the carrying out of experimental studies and in patients with untreatable epilepsy, as well as developing new software and protocols for structural and functional MRI studies. This center brings together groups from different departments, among them from Physics and Mathematics, from Clinical Medicine, from Neurology, from Neurosurgery, from Physiology, Pathology and Molecular Biology. We will develop research activities in MRI, adding different aspects of epilepsy, ranging from neurophysiological questions to applications of new diagnostic and prognostic methodologies. This proposal, in addition to being multidisciplinary, is also multicenter. For example, neuropathological studies will be conducted by researchers from two of the proposing centers, USP-RP and UNICAMP. Furthermore, projects involving animal experimentation will be carried out in collaboration with USP - São Carlos. (AU)
