BioElectroMagnetics Facilities

The Bioelectromagnetics Facilities at Lawson offer the most up to date magnetic field exposure, behavioural and motion tracking, and EEG monitoring/recording equipment housed across approximately 3,000 sq ft of wet, dry, and ACF laboratory space. The equipment in the facilities includes:

• 1m, 1.8m, and 2m Helmholtz arrays for human and animal magnetic field (MF) exposure
• Polhemus Liberty motion tracking systems (2x16 channel, usable in tandem)
• 32 channel ambulatory EEG (x2) (Compumedics)
• Force plate and finger micro-motion laser monitoring stations
• MF shielded enclosures from animal to human sizes, with sham enclosures to match (Ammuneal STB)
• 64 channel EEG (x2) for the human-sized MF shielded and sham-shield enclosures (Neuroscan)
• 128 channel fMRI compatible EEG for use on the 3T MRI/PET/EEG system (Neuroscan)
• Pathway/CHEPS fMRI compatible neurostimulation system (Medoc)
• CF mouse and rat colony, MF exposure system room, MF-shielded enclosures and lab room, and histology room
• 3 separate wet lab areas with fume hoods
