Precision magnetic field modelling and control for wearable magnetoencephalography (2021)
Journal Article
Rea, M., Holmes, N., Hill, R. M., Boto, E., Leggett, J., Edwards, L. J., …Brookes, M. J. (2021). Precision magnetic field modelling and control for wearable magnetoencephalography. NeuroImage, 241, Article 118401. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2021.118401

Optically-pumped magnetometers (OPMs) are highly sensitive, compact magnetic field sensors, which offer a viable alternative to cryogenic sensors (superconducting quantum interference devices – SQUIDs) for magnetoencephalography (MEG). With the promi... Read More about Precision magnetic field modelling and control for wearable magnetoencephalography.

Theoretical advantages of a triaxial optically pumped magnetometer magnetoencephalography system (2021)
Journal Article
Brookes, M. J., Boto, E., Rea, M., Shah, V., Osborne, J., Holmes, N., …Bowtell, R. (2021). Theoretical advantages of a triaxial optically pumped magnetometer magnetoencephalography system. NeuroImage, 236, Article 118025. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2021.118025

The optically pumped magnetometer (OPM) is a viable means to detect magnetic fields generated by human brain activity. Compared to conventional detectors (superconducting quantum interference devices) OPMs are small, lightweight, flexible, and operat...

Optimal Inverse Design of Magnetic Field Profiles in a Magnetically Shielded Cylinder (2020)
Journal Article
Packer, M., Hobson, P., Holmes, N., Leggett, J., Glover, P., Brookes, M., …Fromhold, T. (2020). Optimal Inverse Design of Magnetic Field Profiles in a Magnetically Shielded Cylinder. Physical Review Applied, 14(5), Article 054004. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevApplied.14.054004

Magnetic shields that use both active and passive components to enable the generation of a tailored low-field environment are required for many applications in science, engineering, and medical imaging. Until now, accurate field nulling, or field gen... Read More about Optimal Inverse Design of Magnetic Field Profiles in a Magnetically Shielded Cylinder.

Mouth magnetoencephalography: A unique perspective on the human hippocampus (2020)
Journal Article
Tierney, T. M., Levy, A., Barry, D. N., Meyer, S. S., Shigihara, Y., Everatt, M., …Barnes, G. R. (2021). Mouth magnetoencephalography: A unique perspective on the human hippocampus. NeuroImage, 225, Article 117443. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.117443

Traditional magnetoencephalographic (MEG) brain imaging scanners consist of a rigid sensor array surrounding the head; this means that they are maximally sensitive to superficial brain structures. New technology based on optical pumping means that we... Read More about Mouth magnetoencephalography: A unique perspective on the human hippocampus.
