The Maastricht Brain Imaging Center (M-BIC) is a research center founded by the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience (FPN) of Maastricht University (UM). 
The research ‘core’ of the M-BIC is formed by the Cognitive Neuroscience (CN) group of the FPN/UM. This group has gained a distinguished reputation for performing leading-edge cognitive brain research and for the development of new analysis methods for MRI data. The ‘know-how’ in the center extends from the development of methods and techniques for the acquisition and analysis of MR images to their application in testing cognitive theories of information processing. One of the leading fMRI analysis and visualization software packages in the world (“BrainVoyager” by Prof. Rainer Goebel) is developed within this group and is used at present in more than 300 research sites world-wide. The applications are specifically directed to normal as well as abnormal information processing, with special attention to the plasticity of brain and cognition. The group publishes regularly in high impact journals on the neural correlates of vision, audition, language, language abnormalities, attention and mental imagery. These pioneer research activities will be conducted in close collaboration with the Siemens Medical Systems (Erlangen, Germany) and with national and international leading brain imaging centers. In particular, the M-BIC will participate in The Netherlands in the Cognitive Neuroscience Centre Nijmegen together with the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics. This participation will extend the already available research infrastructure and thus broaden the scope of the research programs to include human and animal research in different methodological contexts.
