Neuroimaging research is multidisciplinary, drawing on principles of the brain sciences, statistics, and computer science. During clinical training, few clinician-scientists receive an in-depth introduction to this broad range of disciplines, unless they complete a dedicated neuroimaging fellowship. The CNRC’s mission is to make neuroimaging research more accessible to scientists without this background, who want to incorporate imaging into their research​.

CNRC was established in 2021 by the Dept. of Psychiatry and Human Behavior and is part of Brown University’s extended neuroimaging community. We work closely with the COBRE Center for Nervous System Function at Brown’s Carney Institute, the COBRE Center for Neuromodulation at Butler Hospital, the Center for Neurorestoration and Neurotechnology at Providence VA Medical Center, and the Child-Mind T32 program at Bradley Hospital. CNRC can help connect investigators with this broader, integrated network.
