The Gonda Multidisciplinary Brain Research Center
Electromagnetic Brain Imaging Unit - Magnetoencephalography (MEG) system
The electromagnetic brain imaging unit at BIU is equipped with a magnetoencephalography (MEG) system, the only one in ISRAEL. MEG is a functional neuroimaging technique for mapping brain activity. It works by measuring, using very sensitive sensors, the magnetic fields produced by the naturally occurring electrical activity of the brain. Applications of MEG include basic research into perceptual and cognitive brain processes, functional brain mapping and localizing regions affected by pathology before surgical removal.
The unit contains a state-of-the-art 248-sensor magnetometer whole-head array and all required equipment for experimental stimulation as well as simultaneous recording of EEG and eye-movements. Facilities include testing rooms as well as hardware and software necessary for conducting experiments and analyzing data.
Stimulation: Video projector; air conductance headphones; vibrotactile stimulation
Participant monitoring and recording: intercom, video, 10-finger response boxes, eye-tracking, microphone
Simultaneous 64-channel EEG, auxiliary channels for other data
Advantages of MEG: Direct measure of brain function, very high temporal resolution (sub-millisecond), good spatial resolution, completely non-invasive and passive recording, quiet environment suitable for children or infants.

היחידה לדימות מוח אלקטרומגנטי:
מצוידת במכשיר מגנטו-אנצפלוגרף (MEG) היחיד בארץ. MEG היא שיטת דימות תפקודי לא-חודרנית למיפוי פעילות מוחית. השיטה מבוססת על מדידה, באמצעות חיישנים רגישים מאוד, של שדות מגנטיים המיוצרים על ידי הפעילות החשמלית הטבעית של המוח. יישומים של MEG כוללים מחקר בסיסי של תהליכים מוחיים תפיסתיים וקוגניטיביים, מיפוי מוח פונקציונלי ואיתור אזורים פתולוגיים (מוקדים אפילפטיים) לפני הסרה כירורגית.
יתרונות ה-MEG: מדידה ישירה של פעילות מוחית, רזולוציה זמנית של פחות מאלפית שנייה, רזולוציה מרחבית גבוהה, רישום פאסיבי ובטוח לגמרי, לא חודרני, ושקט במיוחד.
המערכת כוללת מכשיר בעל 248 מגנטומטרים וכל הציוד הנוסף הנדרש לגרייה וניטור בניסוי, יחד עם רישום סימולטני של EEG ותנועות עיניים.
ביחידה ישנם גם חדרי בדיקה, כמו גם חומרה ותוכנה הדרושים לביצוע ניסויים וניתוח נתונים.
גרייה: מקרן וידאו; אוזניות הולכת אוויר; גירוי ויברו-טקטילי, מעקב וניטור נבדקים: אינטרקום, וידאו, תיבות תגובה באורך 10 אצבעות, מעקב תנועות עיניים, מיקרופון רישום במקביל של 64 ערוצי EEG, וערוצי עזר עבור נתונים אחרים.
השרות הניתן: זמן רישום MEG (כולל גרייה בניסוי)
למידע נוסף ותאום שירות יש לפנות לאנשי הקשר הרשומים מטה.

יישומי מדידות פלואורסנציה ופוספורסנציה במעבדה לפלואורסנציה דינמית
מנהל: ד"ר דן עמיר
מדידות פלואורסנציה מאפשרות רגישות דטקציה מרבית, עד כדי דטקציה של מולקולה בודדת. לכן רבים יישומיה בתחום האנאליזה והמחקר.
כל פוטון שנפלט על ידי מולקולה נושא מידע הכולל: אורך גל פליטה, אורך גל ערור, זמן חיים של המצב המעורר, קיטוב, כוון במערכת צירי המעבדה ומידע על תהליכים שקרו תוך כדי זמן החיים של המצב המעורר (פוטוכימיה, דיפוזיה, שיכוך, איזומריזציה, שינויי מבנה במקרומולקולות, מדידות FRET ועוד).
מערכות המדידה במעבדה לפלואורסנציה דינמית רושמות את כל הפרמטרים הללו ולכן מגוון היישומים הוא עצום.
ד"ר דן עמיר עומד לרשות המעוניינים בייעוץ והדרכה לתכנון ניסויים וביצועם, החל מהכנת החומרים ועד לניתוח התוצאות ואילו את המדידות המורכבות וחישוב תוצאותיהן (זמני חיים, קינטיקה) מבצע ד"ר דן עמיר עבור המעוניינים כך שאינם צריכים להשקיע שנים של התמחות כדי להגיע לרמת ביצועים נדרשת, הידע ממתין להם במעבדה.
מבחר יישומים רשומים להלן:
- אפיון מערכות על פי ספקטרום פליטה ובליעה ואנאליזה כמותית.
- מדידות דינמיקה מולקולרית רוטציה בתחום ננו שניות על פי מדידות קיטוב, הבחנה בין סוגי רוטציה שונים על ידי מדידות דעיכה של אנאיזוטרופיה (חלבונים, ממברנות ביולוגיות, קשיחות ממברנות).
- מדידות דעיכה של הפלואורסנציה (זמני חיים של המצב המעורר) מאפשרות: גילוי תת אוכלוסיות בתוך אנסמבל מולקולרי, מעקב אחר תהליכים מהירים בממדים מיקרוסקופיים, שינויי מבנה בביופולימרים, שווי משקל של תת אוכלוסיות, קצב שינויי מבנה במקרומולקולות, דינמיקה של ממברנות ועוד.
- מדידות FRET מובחנות זמנים (ברמת האנסמבל וברמת המולקולה הבודדת) מאפשרות חקר מבנים ומרחקים פנים מולקולריים ובין מולקולריים, קינטיקה של שינויי מבנה, קיפול, פרישה, אגרגאציה, דיפוזיה פנים ובין מולקולרית, קישור ליגנדים (שווי משקל וקינטיקה), מדידת התפלגויות מרחקים בממדי מולקולות והתפלגויות מבנים בתוך אנסמבל מסודר או לא מסודר.
- מערכת הקינטיקה הכפולה מאפשרת מעקב אחר ריאקציות מהירות בתחום המילי שניה באמצעות מדידות זמני חיים בתחום הננו שניה. כך ניתן להפיק את כל המידע הצפון במדידות זמני חיים ומדידות FRET תוך כדי קיום תהליכים מולקולריים.
מדידות מולקולה בודדת במכשיר PicoQuant Macrotime200 מאפשרות מעקב אחר מולקולות בודדות תוך ניצול יתרונות הסטטיסטיקה של הפוטונים.
מדידות זמני חיים של מצבים מעוררים באמצעות מערכת המבוססת על לייזר מצב מוצק Coherent Chameleon הכוללת בורר פולסים והכפלת ושילוש תדרים, כך שניתן למדוד כמעט בכל הספקטרום, מהUV ועד האדום.
מערכות הקינטיקה המהירה כוללות התקן הפסק זרימה (BioLogic)
