work on a multidisciplinary research project funded by K.U.Leuven. The ambition
of the project is to integrate 2 completely different and complementary
biomedical measurement techniques, namely Electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings
and functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), and to apply this integrated
measurement technique in the study of cognitive processes and cognitive
dysfunctions. The research is done in a multidisciplinary environment in
collaboration with radiologists, neurologists, physicists, engineers and
psychologists.</FONT></SPAN></P>
