Ongoing projects

Core projects in 2024:

• Imaging genetics (BrainMint, Mindlock)
• Psychiatry (TOP, B4DT, RLINK)
• Multiple sclerosis (Multiple MS, NOR-MS, HMAS, Overlord, SYS4MS)
• Neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer, ALS)
• Cancer/brain tumors (ImPRESS)
• Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Several of these studies include subprojects.

The Brain Imaging Register

Inclusion of patients who have signed a broad consent gives researchers the possibility to use MR-images of the brain taken at OUS in future projects. Patients are also requested to provide a saliva sample. The aim is to create a big-data register. In January 2024, the register consisted of >2300 included patients and >900 saliva samples.
