Fabulous to see the final shiny version of our paper out in @eLife! doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… @nsrhodes2
Extremely happy to see this published in eLife, by the wonderful @LukasRier and @nsrhodes2 !!! It shows the neurodevelopmental trajectory of beta 'oscillations' (and bursts!!), measured using OPM-MEG @QuSpin_ @CercaMagnetics @SPMIC_UoN @UoN_Physics elifesciences.org/articles/94561

Extremely honoured to receive an OBE this week from HRH The Princess Royal. Massive thanks to all my colleagues and collaborators, especially everyone at @SPMIC_UoN @UoN_Physics @CercaMagnetics and @QuSpin_ To everyone in @UoN_MEG, past & present, this should be yours, not mine!
A new preprint on @biorxivpreprint by the fabulous @HollySchofield_ exploring a new platform for OPM-MEG data acquisition. @QuSpin_ @SPMIC_UoN @UoN_MEG @UoN_Physics @CercaMagnetics biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
New preprint on bioRxiv with @nsrhodes2 Daisie Pakenham, Elena Boto, @niall_holmes @ryanmickhill Gonzalo Reina Rivero @QuSpin_ Cody Doyle, James Osborne, @richardbowtell Margot Taylor and @MattBrookesMEG !

Very well deserved, it is a privilege to work alongside Matt and the team! A bright future ahead 🥳@MattBrookesMEG @UoN_MEG @SPMIC_UoN @UoN_Physics @CercaMagnetics
Congratulations to Prof Matt Brookes (@MattBrookesMEG) who has been awarded an OBE in the New Year Honours list for services to physics including the development and commercialisation, with spin out @CercaMagnetics of quantum brain scanners nottingham.ac.uk/news/new-year-…
arxiv.org/abs/2410.08718 Our new preprint on calibration methods for OPM MEG is now online at arxiv! We use two methods to determine location, orientation, and gain of OPM sensors and assess the change in source reconstruction compared to using assumed geometries
Excited to share our new paper in @IEEE-TBME! We used tSSS with OPMs to recover MEG signals in a lightly shielded room: cheaper shields will aid wider deployment of OPM-MEG technology. doi.org/10.1109/TBME.2… @UoN_MEG @UW_ILABS @SPMIC_UoN @UoN_Physics @MattBrookesMEG
Dr Lukas Rier joined @Notts_TV to talk about his recent research using wearable brain imaging to look at activity in young children's brains @UoN_MEG @SPMIC_UoN @CercaMagnetics Watch from 13.20: nottstv.com/programme/nott…
New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Zelekha A. Seedat, Matthew J. Brookes, et al: Simultaneous whole-head electrophysiological recordings using EEG and OPM-MEG doi.org/10.1162/imag_a…
I am delighted to share that our article "Four-channel optically pumped magnetometer for a magnetoencephalography sensor array" has been published in Optics Express. We demonstrate second generation optically pumped magnetometer for MEG. #quantum #meg. doi.org/10.1364/OE.517…
Our new paper is now out on @QuantSciTech! Magnetic gradiometers are the preferred sensor of MEG users, so we have built a truly intrinsic axial OPM gradiometer to match this need. It also happens to be my first first-author paper! Hope you enjoy! iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…
On behalf of the spectacular @markwoolrich WIN-OHBA at the University of Oxford is recruiting a new post-doc to develop machine learning methods for analysing data from MEG data, including from our new OPM-MEG scanner. See here for more details: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
.@ProfTomCrick from @DCMS visited @SPMIC_UoN today to find out how wearable MEG technology is being used in research looking into how concussion affects the brain @UoN_Physics @MattBrookesMEG @UoN_MEG
Thrilled to see the impact of our £45m quantum investment at @CercaMagnetics! Their cutting-edge work on a functional brain scanner is a beacon of hope for those battling neurological diseases. A glimpse into the future of healthcare innovation 🏥 🥼
Huge congratulations to Prof Matthew Brookes @UoN_Physics and Honorary Prof Dr Simon Grant @ChemistryUoN who have been recognised in the King's New Year Honours 2024. Find out more here ➡️: ow.ly/ui1A50Qmxv2 #WeAreUoN #NYHonours #NewYearHonours @UoNResearch
Christmas has come early - 3 new roles in the OPM lab at UCL @WCHN_UCL. Help to transform OPMs into a force for naturalistic neuroscience 🧠. Exciting times ahead! #pleaseRT 1. ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se… 2. ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se… 3. ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se…
Cerca Magnetics are very proud to announce that we have been named as one of @BloombergUK 's 25 Startups To Watch In The UK at the 2023 Bloomberg Technology Summit! #BloombergTech #Bloomberg @business #Quantum #OPMMEG
#OnThisDay 1978: Tomorrow's World gave audiences a true world first as Dr Peter Mansfield of the University of Nottingham demonstrated the first full body prototype device for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), allowing us to see inside the human body without the use of X-rays.
Extremely pleased to finally see this out in @ImagingNeurosci! We show that OPM-MEG with whole-head coverage can reliably reconstruct spectral power and functional connectivity. Great collaboration between @PrincetonNeuro and @SPMIC_UoN @UoN_MEG!
