NeuroSpin is a high-field nuclear magnetic resonance (MRI) brain neuroimaging center and a department of the Frédéric Joliot Institute of Life Sciences of the CEA Paris-Saclay Research Center.[1] It is a large research infrastructure aimed at pushing the current limits of brain imaging.[2] It integrates the Biomedical Imaging Institute alongside two other research centers: the Frédéric Joliot Hospital Service of the CEA in Orsay and MIRCen in Fontenay-aux-Roses.[3]

The center is currently headed by Stanislas Dehaene, who succeeded Denis Le Bihan.[4]
