<p class="MsoNormal">The Cambridge Centre for Ageing and Neuroscience (Cam-CAN; www.cam-can.org) is pleased to announce the release of raw data from the first wave of Phase II of the Cam-CAN cohort. These data include MRI, MEG and cognitive data from approximately
650 males and females uniformly distributed from 18 to 88 years of age. The sample is unique in its population-representativeness (e.g, relative to national census data) and the depth and breadth of neuroimaging and cognitive assessment. The MRI data (in NIFTI
and BIDS format) include T1-weighted, T2-weighted and Diffusion-weighted 3T MRI images, plus 3 runs of BOLD-weighted images during 1) rest, 2) movie-watching and 3) an event-related sensorimotor task (with combined visual and auditory stimuli cueing a motor
response); the MEG data (in FIF format) include 3 runs of 1) rest, 2) the same sensorimotor task as the fMRI and 3) a passive sensory task (with separate visual and auditory stimuli); the behavioural data include scores on tasks assessing a range of cognitive
domains, such as fluid intelligence, memory, language, among others. For more information about the CamCAN project and data, see:<o:p></o:p></p>
