Scientists have devised a portable, noninvasive direct approach to image infant brain activity in a clinical setting without relying on massive scanning machines. The method has been used to monitor seizures with higher resolution than what other technologies can currently achieve. Insight about infant brain activity from the new technology could potentially pave the way to therapeutic innovations for neurological disorders.
Harvey L. Neiman Health Policy Institute announced that it is part of a team that has been awarded a five-year, $3.7 million National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant to establish a Core Center for Clinical Research to promote musculoskeletal clinical research. This new University of Washington-based effort will be called the Clinical Learning, Effectiveness and Research (CLEAR) Center and will be led by Jeffrey G. Jarvik, M.D., MPH, professor of radiology. The CLEAR Center will catalyze high-quality, multi-institutional collaborations by improving methods for conducting clinical musculoskeletal studies and by providing analysis-ready data for scientific investigators.
