The IRMaGE platform | Grenoble Institut des Neurosciences

IRMaGe is an Unité Mixte de Service (joint research center) in the Institute of Neuroscience (GIN) and the Grenoble CHU (University Hospital Center).

The platform is affiliated with the Grenoble Alpes University, Inserm, CNRS (French National Center for Scientific Research) and the CHU. IRMaGe is part of the Grenoble node in the France Life Imaging (FLI) national infrastructure.

The IRMaGe platform has developed expertise in the field of NMR imaging, functional cerebral exploration (EEG, TMS, NIRS) and metabolomic (NMR, HRMAS) to support human research projects as well as research projects on small and large animals with clinical, cognitive or fundamental goals in neuroscience. Applications on other organs are regularly conducted.

IRMaGe applications cover a very broad range of activities:

Methodological developments
Transgenic mice phenotyping
Monitoring pathology progression
Assessment of the efficiency of new treatments
Cellular and molecular imaging
Research in cognitive science
Cerebral functional exploration
Assessment of the NMR compatibility of materials
High resolution study of tissue samples
Assessment of new implantable systems
