This chapter explores the use of optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) as a tool for magnetoencephalography (MEG). Conventional MEG systems use superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) to measure the femto-Tesla-level magnetic fields at... Read More about Turning OPM-MEG into a Wearable Technology.

A lightweight magnetically shielded room with active shielding (2022)
Journal Article
Holmes, N., Rea, M., Chalmers, J., Leggett, J., Edwards, L. J., Nell, P., …Bowtell, R. (2022). A lightweight magnetically shielded room with active shielding. Scientific Reports, 12, Article 13561. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-17346-1

Magnetically shielded rooms (MSRs) use multiple layers of materials such as MuMetal to screen external magnetic fields that would otherwise interfere with high precision magnetic field measurements such as magnetoencephalography (MEG). Optically pump... Read More about A lightweight magnetically shielded room with active shielding.

Using OPM-MEG in contrasting magnetic environments (2022)
Journal Article
Hill, R. M., Devasagayam, J., Holmes, N., Boto, E., Shah, V., Osborne, J., …Brookes, M. J. (2022). Using OPM-MEG in contrasting magnetic environments. NeuroImage, 253, Article 119084. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2022.119084

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) has been revolutionised by optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs). “OPM-MEG” offers higher sensitivity, better spatial resolution, and lower cost than conventional instrumentation based on superconducting quantum interfere...
