電機系陳志宏教授團隊所執行貴儀器運作計畫-「核磁共振影像／光譜分析儀計畫」，運用靜息態功能性磁共振造影技術(Resting-state functional MRI, rs-FMRI)，探究身體與心智關係即體化的心智(the embodied mind)，透過分析手臂的訊號和大腦內訊號在同時間的連結狀況，對於大腦中樞神經系統(central nervous system, CNS)及周邊神經系統(peripheral nervous system, PNS)兩者複雜的連動機制而有著更進一步的全新觀點，此身體與大腦互動應用可望提昇腦中風患者後續進行肢體復健技能訓練效率；通過腦腸軸 (brain-gut axis) 調節飲食改善帕金森氏症症狀；刺激迷走神經緩解難治性癲癇（refractory epilepsy）發作症候以及某些意識障礙的改善。此傑出研究成果發表於Journal of Neuroscience Methods期刊 (I-Ning Tang, Tun Jao, Yun-An Huang , Chia-Wei Li ,Ya-Chih Yu , Jyh-Horng Chen* .
