The Neural Markers Training Scheme provided training and support for researchers to develop new skills through collaborative research projects using magnetoencephalography (MEG), electroencephalography (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), eye-tracking and other experimental techniques. A range of projects were funded by the Centre under this targeted research program.
