Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is a widely employed tool for micro-/nanoscale topographic imaging. However, conventional AFM scanning struggles to reconstruct complex 3D micro-/nanostructures precisely due to limitations such as incomplete…
We report on our progress in the development of an atomic magnetometer (AM) based low-frequency magnetic particle imaging (MPI) scanner, expected to be free from Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) and Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS)…
Current non-invasive neuroimaging techniques trade off between spatial resolution and temporal resolution. While magnetoencephalography (MEG) can capture rapid neural dynamics and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can spatially…
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging with nanometer resolution requires new detection techniques with sensitivity well beyond the capability of conventional inductive detection. Here, we demonstrate two dimensional imaging of $^1$H NMR…
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been constantly supporting nanosciences and nanotechnologies for over 30 years, being present in many fields from condensed matter physics to biology. It enables measuring very weak forces at the nanoscale,…
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging~(fMRI) is widely used to study activation in the human brain. In most cases, data are commonly used to construct activation maps corresponding to a given paradigm. Results can be very variable, hence…
Understanding how networks of neurons process information is one of the key challenges in modern neuroscience. A necessary step to achieve this goal is to be able to observe the dynamics of large populations of neurons over a large area of…
Multi-planar tagged MRI is the gold standard for regional heart wall motion evaluation. However, accurate recovery of the 3D true heart wall motion from a set of 2D apparent motion cues is challenging, due to incomplete sampling of the true…
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging~(fMRI) is a popular non-invasive modality to investigate activation in the human brain. The end result of most fMRI experiments is an activation map corresponding to the given paradigm. These maps can…
Wide field-of-view magnetic field microscopy has been realised by probing shifts in optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) spectrum of Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) defect centers in diamond. However, these widefield diamond NV magnetometers…
Quantum diamond magnetometers using lock-in detection have successfully detected weak bio-magnetic fields from neurons, a live mammalian muscle, and a live mouse heart. This opens up the possibility of quantum diamond magnetometers…
Scanning magnetometry with nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond has led to significant advances in the sensitive imaging of magnetic systems. The spatial resolution of the technique, however, remains limited to tens to hundreds of…
Neural population activity in cortical and hippocampal circuits can be flexibly reorganized by context, suggesting that cognition relies on dynamic manifolds rather than static representations. However, how such dynamic organization can be…
Optical detection of magnetic resonance using quantum spin sensors (QSS) provides a spatially local and sensitive technique to probe spin dynamics in magnets. However, its utility as a probe of antiferromagnetic resonance (AFMR) remains an…
Diffusion functional MRI (dfMRI) is a promising technique to map functional activations by acquiring diffusion-weighed spin-echo images. In previous studies, dfMRI showed higher spatial accuracy at activation mapping compared to classic…
In the presence of a background magnetic field, axions or axion-like particles (ALPs) can be resonantly converted to photons when their mass is nearly equal to the effective photon mass. In this paper, we propose a novel method to constrain…
Objective While Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) show some common memory deficits, these two disorders show partially overlapping complex spatiotemporal patterns of neural dynamics. The objective of this study is…
Biomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery, microsurgery, and sensing rely on reaching precise areas within the body in a minimally invasive way. Artificial bacterial flagella (ABFs) have emerged as potential tools for this task…
Tensor-based morphometry (TBM) aims at showing local differences in brain volumes with respect to a common template. TBM images are smooth but they exhibit (especially in diseased groups) higher values in some brain regions called lateral…
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a notoriously noisy measurement of brain activity because of the large variations between individuals, signals marred by environmental differences during collection, and spatiotemporal…
