What is DRCMR? - It is all about the brain
Written by Lise Skjold AndersenThe Danish Research Centre for Magnetic Resonance (DRCMR) is placed at Copenhagen University Hospital, Hvidovre, and is one of the leading research centres in Europe within the field of biomedical MRI. A highly profiled international research team translates the latest advances in MRI to examine the brain's function, metabolism and structure.
The Danish 22q11 Research Initiative
Written by Lise Skjold AndersenThe 22q11 deletion as an at-high risk model for neurodevelopmental disorders such as schizophrenia and autism: Uncovering the neurobiological underpinnings.
Since the beginning of the ContAct group, a long list of international neuroscientists have presented their work in the regular ContAct presentation series. Furthermore, a number of retreats and three highly successful TMS courses with international attendees have created an inspiring research environment.
This workpackage investigated the neural underpinnings of intentional action control. Important questions concern how our intentions motivate whether we act, when we act and what kind of actions we perform.
Action control is a high-dimensional process offering a multitude of possible choices. Workpackage 5 investigated different aspects of action selection and inhibition by tracing dynamic changes in neural activity and connectivity strength in networks involved in conflict resolution and action control.
In workpackage 4, we examined and compared activity patterns and dynamic changes in connectivity strength in brain systems that are involved in learning and prediction.
This workpackage used non-invasive Transcranial Brain Stimulation (NTBS) techniques such as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) which can directly interact with the brains ongoing electrical activity without causing significant discomfort.
EEG and fMRI can capture functional integration within large-scale brain systems. Work package 2 employed two different methods to investigate functional and effective connectivity in brain networks.
This workpackage aimed at optimizing existing tractography methods to fully exploit the full potential of diffusion MRI. Measures of structural connectivity pathways in the brain can then be used to discover their role in action control.

The national 7-tesla MRI scanner was installed after generous donations from the John and Birthe Meyer Foundation and the Danish Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation. This scanner is the most powerful and the only one of its kind in Denmark, and has been officially in use since 2016. The scanner is dedicated for research only.
DRCMR has a strong focus on non-invasive transcranial brain stimulation (NTBS) to study and shape human brain function.
