The Graham Neuroimaging Lab
Located at Sunnybrook Research Institute and fully affiliated with the University of Toronto Department of Medical Biophysics, the laboratory of Dr. Simon J. Graham conducts a broad range of medical imaging research within the overlapping fields of medical physics, biomedical engineering, and neuroimaging science. Most of the research involves developing and applying advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods for evaluation of brain anatomy and physiological function. There is also a particular focus on using functional MRI (fMRI) to measure brain activity related to human behaviour.
