Research at the PROVIDI Lab consists mainly of developing
processing and visualization methodology for diffusion MRI to improve the reliability of
quantitative analyses and to gain more insight into the fundamental properties of tissue microstructure.
An overview of the research activities in Dutch can be found
here.
The PROVIDI Lab also participates in several neuroscientific, clinical
and biomedical research projects with topics such as normal brain development and aging, diabetes mellitus,
vascular Parkinsonism, autism, and traumatic brain injury, among others. In addition to literature
that reviews diffusion MRI concepts, a few representative research articles are provided below.
