The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) awarded the Regents of the University of Minnesota a Project Grant of $531,021 under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286). The award, effective April 10, 2026, with completion targeted for January 31, 2030, supports technology development for whole brain functional and structural connectivity mapping at 10.5 Tesla (10.5T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) field strength. The project addresses critical technological barriers in ultrahigh-field MRI scanning by developing advanced radiofrequency (RF) and gradient technologies to enable high-resolution functional MRI (fMRI) and diffusion MRI (dMRI) imaging capabilities. The research initiative directly supports national priorities established through the Human Connectome Project and the Brain Initiative by delivering innovative technological solutions that optimize the 10.5T scanner's performance at the Center for Magnetic Resonance Research. Key deliverables include the design and development of an 80-element hybrid array coil incorporating loop-dipole designs to achieve theoretically predicted signal-to-noise ratios and resolve RF excitation challenges at the ultrahigh field strength. These technology development outputs are expected to enhance neuroimaging research capabilities and advance the understanding of human brain connectivity at unprecedented resolution levels, supporting both fundamental neuroscience discovery and translational applications in neuropsychiatric disorder research.Federal Grant Award Summary
