LA2412C TCD - RFT for the Supply of an Optically Pumped Magnetoencephalography (OPM MEG) solution

Education Procurement Service (EPS)

Tenders are sought for the Supply of a Magnetoencephalography system with optically pumped magnetometers (OPM-MEG) to provide images of the brain. A state-of-the-art OPM-MEG scanner is required by academic, clinical and industrial users across Ireland and international partners. Several critical subject groups are not able to lie still and so a helmet-sensor based approach inside a shielded room (such as OPM MEG) allows movement without degradation of the MEG Signal. To facilitate cutting-edge research, we would like a strong collaborative relationship with the manufacturer, including early access to new features from the manufacturer and from other neuroscience research sites.
