Dr. Mohammadreza Ay From Techniques to ServicesIranian National Brain Mapping Laboratory is an affiliate of the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology, which, in close cooperation with Ministry of Health, will provide the necessary infrastructures and efficient and up-to-date services for various brain mapping studies. Mission of INBML is to provide brain researchers with different services. There are different sections in lab, including f/MRI, brain stimulation, EEG, and fNIRSequipped with the most state of the art devices which can be used by researchers of different universities and centers. In this panel, INBML’s structure, goals, and different services provided by it will be introduced and leading scientists will discuss different suggestions for extending brain mapping studies using these technologies in country.
