About the centre

SUBIC – Stockholm University Brain Imaging Centre is a multidisciplinary infrastructure dedicated to research on brain structure and function, as well as other fields benefiting from imaging micro structures.

At our facility, researchers can conduct experiments using:

  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which uses strong magnetic fields and pulses to create images of the brain.
  • X-ray microscopy, which uses ionizing radiation to generate 3D images of microstructures.
  • Electroencephalography (EEG), which measures the electrical signals emitted by the brain’s neurons.
  • Eye tracking, which can measure minute eye movements for gaze analysis and pupil size (an indicator of attention and autonomic responses).

Facilities

SUBIC has equipment for MRI, X-ray micro-tomography, EEG, and eye-tracking.
