Welcome to the Birkbeck-UCL Centre for NeuroImaging (BUCNI).
BUCNI provides state-of-the-art magnetic imaging facilities for Birkbeck and UCL staff and promotes inter-institutional collaboration and innovation.
BUCNI is home to two Siemens scanners: a Prisma 3T and Avanto 1.5T. Both scanners are equipped with multiple head coils, including 64-, 32- and custom 30-channel coils, as well as other surface coils.
**The new Hyperfine scanner joins the BUCNI scanner family**
We welcome a new ultra-low field fMRI scanner to the BUCNI facility, called the Hyperfine. You can find more information via their website and we will be adding the Hyperfine to the Calpenod Booking calendar soon. If you are interested in using the Hyperfine here at BUCNI, please do not hesitate to contact us.
**Updated Adult Pre-Screening Form**
We have updated the Adult Pre-Screening form. Please find the updated versions by Forms and Documents. You will find an interactive version as well, which researchers can use to send to participants ahead of time to complete "online" and send it back to the researchers. Please note participants are still required to fill in a pre-screening form on-site before their scan. Thank you.
