Acquisition of a 3 Tesla MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), for human studies, and clinical applications. This equipment will be an EMU (Equipment Multi User) to enhance the ongoing projects that support this proposal (two CEPID, five thematic projects and three projects by Young Researchers), in the spirit of this announcement. The equipment needs to be at the frontier of available techno…
Nearly half of the patients with epilepsy have poor seizure control, even after more than a century of advances in pharmacological treatment. For some of these drug-resistant cases, surgery may be the indicated treatment. In these cases, surgical success is directly linked to the correct location of the epileptogenic zone (EZ; i.e., the brain area responsible for seizure generation), and …

Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders (SOP) are highly prevalent with significant morbidity and mortality. However, data on the incidence and course of SOP across the globe are still scarce, especially in developing countries. The etiology of SOP is multifactorial, involving biological and social factors, and a genuine advance in the understanding SOP depends crucially on an integra…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease with unknown cause, with strong influence of both genetic and environment. Multiple plaques of demyelization with few millimeters characterize the histology of MS, but it can reach many centimeters. In addition, microscopic lesions are diffuse in the normal appearing with matter (NAWM) on gross pathology and conventional mag…

Resting state studies by fMRI are carried out in order to identify the brain networks responsible for the basal functioning of the brain networks, known as default mode networks (DMN). Although considered to be in rest, subjects are unavoidably under a massive charge of environmental acoustic noise produced by the MRI equipment. Our aim was to verify if the massive auditory information in…
Mesial Temporal Sclerosis (MTS) is the most common cause of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), characterized by gliosis and atrophy of the hippocampus and related structures, such as the temporal pole , the mamilar body and fornix, for example. However, the brain damage is not limited to these structures, and has been described posterior temporal changes and extra-temporal damage in TLE patien…
