The Brain Mapping Unit is part of the Department of Psychiatry. The Unit’s interest is to map the structure and function of the human brain with advanced brain imaging techniques. We are particularly interested in mapping normal memory and learning, development, ageing, drug effects on brain function, and neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, autism and depression.

We have a strong technical focus on complex network analysis and other methods for statistical analysis and visualization of large and complex brain mapping datasets.

The BMU networks meetings are held on Tuesday mornings, in the seminar room of the Behavioural and Clinical Neuroscience Institute, in the Sir William Hardy Building, on Downing Site.

The Cambridge Connectome Consortium is a forum for brain-connectivity researchers and is co-organized by the Brain Mapping Unit Networks Group and the MRC CBU Connectivity Interest group. The aim of the Consortium is to host connectivity-research speakers from Cambridge, the UK and the wider world.

The Cambridge Connectome Consortium meetings are held approximately monthly in the lecture theatre of the MRC CBU , 15 Chaucer Road, Cambridge.
