National Brain Research Centre
is the only institute in India dedicated to neuroscience
research and education. Scientists and students of NBRC
come from diverse academic backgrounds, including biological,
computational, mathematical, physical, engineering and
medical sciences, and use multidisciplinary approaches
to understand the brain.Located in the foothills of the Aravali range in Manesar,
Haryana, NBRC is an autonomous institute funded by the
Department of Biotechnology, Government of India, and
is also a Deemed University.

| Major research activities
|
|
|
- Neural Information Processing is the research focus
at NBRC. It involves analysis and modeling of neural
data acquired during electrophysiological recordings,
speech recordings, MRI scans, functional neuroimaging
paradigms. NBRC carries out research and training
in this area in a focused and dedicated manner.
- Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy – (Integration
of medical physics and technology (MRI, MRS and fMRI)
to understand brain disorders and identification of
causal molecular process are the focus area of Dr.
Mandal’s laboratory. Eventually that could lead
to therapeutic discovery/development.
- Imaging and Image analysis: Novel techniques of
image acquisition and image analysis for more efficient
application of diagnostic and therapeutic neuroimaging
methodology are being developed by Prof. Prashun Roy’s
laboratory. The laboratory utilizes MRI based strain
analysis to estimate the stress in flowing blood to
estimate cerebrovascular deficits, as also to delineate
elastoplastic deformation of brain for early diagnosis
and differentiation of Mild Cognitive Impairment and
Alzheimer’s disease.
- Functional Neuroimaging and Bilingualism –
The Speech and Language Laboratory (SALLY) uses behaviour
and functional imaging paradigms to study how different
areas of the brain network together to read different
scripts like Devnagari and English.
