# Carl Lindhagen

**Carl Albert Lindhagen** (17 December 1860 – 11 March 1946) was a Swedish lawyer, politician, and pacifist.

Carl Lindhagen was the chief magistrate (*borgmästare*) of Stockholm 1903–1930 (i.e. a legal position, not mayor).

## Life

Lindhagen was born in Stockholm. He was the son of Albert Lindhagen and the brother of Anna Lindhagen and Arthur Lindhagen. He studied law in Uppsala.

As a lawyer, Lindhagen participated as adviser for the executives of the testament of Alfred Nobel. He was the secretary of the Nobel Committee in 1899, and at times he was suggested as a nominee to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, for his anti-militarism commitments.

He started his political career in the Liberal party, which in the time before democracy was considered a radical movement. He joined the Swedish Social Democratic Party in 1909, when he was already almost 50 years old. He soon joined the leftist opposition against the party leader Hjalmar Branting. The left-wing was headed by the young Communist Zeth Höglund, and in 1917 the group broke away from the mother party and formed the Social Democratic Left Party of Sweden (SSV).

Lindhagen fought for democracy, women's rights and better conditions for the working class and working farmers. He was also an advocate for better conditions for the indigenous Sami people in mid- and northern Scandinavia.

Carl Lindhagen is known for his work for women's rights, and put forward a number of suggestions for the improvement of women's rights in the Swedish parliament, the most noted being that of women suffrage. In 1902, two motions regarding women suffrage reform were presented to the Swedish Parliament. One was from the Minister of Justice Hjalmar Hammarskjöld, who suggested that married men be given two votes, as they could be regarded to vote in place of their wives as well. The other motion was presented by Carl Lindhagen, who suggested women suffrage. The Hammarskjöld suggestion aroused anger among women's rights activists, who formed a support group for the Lindhagen motion. On 4 June 1902, National Association for Women's Suffrage (FKPR) was founded, which became the start point of the organized women suffrage movement in Sweden.

As the chief magistrate of Stockholm, Carl Lindhagen, together with Ture Nerman and Fredrik Ström, was part of a small delegation that greeted Lenin during his short visit in Stockholm in April 1917. The Swedish Socialists took Lenin to the PUB department store where they bought him a brand new suit so he would look good and clean coming back home to revolutionary Petrograd. Carl Lindhagen originally supported Lenin and the Bolshevik revolution in Russia, but he was also a pacifist and disagreed with some aspects of Communism. In 1921, he opposed the adoption of the Twenty-one Conditions of the ComIntern, and was thus expelled from SSV. He and fellow expellees formed a rump SSV.

In 1923 he, along with the rest of his party, rejoined the Social Democratic Party.

## Lindhagen and Esperanto

Lindhagen was a longtime supporter of the international language Esperanto. From 1911, he addressed the Swedish parliament almost every year about the idea of an international language. In 1928 he clearly proposed Esperanto. As a result, in 1929, 1930 and 1931 the Swedish parliament voted a sum of 2900 kronas for instructional Esperanto courses. He also participated in presenting the Esperanto course of Andreo Cseh for Swedish parliamentarians.

He gave the opening speech during the 1927 World Congress of Esperanto in Danzig, and also spoke during an instructional session during the 1934 Congress.

## Personal life

He married the first time in 1883 and his wife died after long sickness in 1902. He remarried in 1904 and had two children with his new wife, Jenny Lindhagen.

It also recalled the 1996 memorandum of understanding between the United Nations and the Iraqi government. Acting under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter, the council extended the Oil-for-Food Programme and expressed its intention to consider new arrangements to improve the flow of commodities and products to Iraq and the facilitation of civilian trade and economic co-operation with Iraq. The proposed arrangements would also improve measures to prevent the sale or supply of items prohibited by the council and revenue flows outside the escrow account established by the council. Finally, the resolution declared that the new provisions would be adopted for 190 days beginning 4 July 2001.

abstract: The Sudan Railways 250 class was a class of ten 4-6-4+4-6-4 Garratt locomotives. It was one of only two classes of "Double Baltic" Garratts. – the other class being the Rhodesia Railways 15th class. The ten locomotives were built in two batches by Beyer, Peacock & Company in 1936–1937. They were the only class of Garratts on the Sudan Railways and were numbered 250–259. They were used on Port Sudan to Atbara and Atbara to Wad Madani routes, until they were made redundant by diesel locomotives. In 1949, they were sold to the Rhodesia Railways where they were numbered 271 to 280 and classified as 17th class. On the RR they were used alongside the 15th and 15A classes. In 1964 all ten locomotive were sold to the Caminhos de Ferro de Moçambique who numbered them 921 to 930. They were then used on the Beira Railroad from the port city of Beira to the Rhodesian border at Umtali. They were still in use into the 1980s, but post-civil war, their fate is unclear; they are presumed all scrapped.

# Tamanduateí (CPTM)

**Tamanduateí**, formerly **Studebaker**/**Vemag Stop**, is a train station on CPTM Line 10-Turquoise, with connection to São Paulo Metro Line 2-Green. It's located between districts Ipiranga and Vila Prudente, in the neighbour hood of Vila Independência, in São Paulo.

## History

After World War II, Brazil started to encourage the nationalization of automotive industry. Therefore, the state of São Paulo was the destination of many multinational companies from the automotive branch. These companies, taking advantage of Anchieta Highway and Santos-Jundiaí Railway, getting installed in the surroundings of these corridors, most notably in the ABC zone. The Distribuidora de Automóveis Studebaker Ltda., founded in 1945, was installed next to the km 70 of the Santos Jundiaí Railway, between São Caetano and Ipiranga stations, and dedicated itself initially to vehicle mounting of the American homonymous and other like Studebaker, Massey Harris, Scania Vabis, Kenworths and Ferguson in regime SDK/CKD. The production growth motivated the hiring of many workers, whose mobility was difficult because of the distance between the factory and Ipiranga station. Motivated by the increasing demand originated by the factory, Santos-Jundiaí created the Studebaker Stop, made of two side platforms and used only in the entrance and exit times of the factory. Despite the stop was in the time table of Santos-Jundiaí, it didn't appear in the maps until 1964, when it was promoted to the category of station.

In the 1950s, Studebaker was renamed to Veículos e Máquinas Agrícolas S.A. (Vemag) and started a process of conversion of its industrial plant to be the automobile manufacturer under licence of the German company DKW. Vemag's growth attracted dozens of small industries suppliers of auto parts, lubricants, and fuel, consolidating that region as an industrial area. Therefore, the small stop became used more, until it was promoted to the condition of regular passengers station, in 1964, when new installations were opened.

After Vemag's closing in 1967, Vemag station was renamed to Tamanduateí, though the old name was made by the companies in the zone and by the media until mid-1970s. Since its creation, the station suffered from flooding of Tamanduateí River, which stops the train traffic sometimes. Slowly, the installation of the station became outdated and didn't attend the modern accessibility rules, being predicted the station remodeling.

### Rebuilt

The original Tamanduateí station was deactivated on 21 September 2010, being replaced by the current one, built 100 metres (330 ft) away from the old station. With the construction of the new train and metro station, the old building was demolished. The new station was built to attend the CPTM Line 10-Turquoise, as well as the Metro Line 2-Green, with the Metro platforms being elevated. A proposal made by State Deputy Edson Ferrarini (PROS) was published to rename the station to *Tamanduateí-Imperador do Ipiranga*, but then-Governor Alberto Goldman vetoed the project and the Legislative Assembly confirmed the veto, archiving the project.

### Infrastructure problems

Five months after the station opening, it already presented five gutters, being one in the CPTM platform and two in the Metro area. The company stated that the repair would be made by the builder, without burden. Local residents heard by Jornal da Tarde in April 2011 complained about the supposed neglect to the surroundings of the station, as the desert region facilitated robbery. Metro responded to the complaints saying that there was project of the reurbanization of the area, and the reform was scheduled to start in the second semester of 2011.

On 15 December 2011, the surroundings of the station were flooded, due to the overflow of Tamanduateí River. In the occasion, employees who arrived to work were obligated to go to Vila Prudente station, where they would take the metro to Tomanduateí. According to an employee heard by Jornal da Tarde, the water had reached the escalators in the Avenida Presidente Wilson entrance. Passengers who arrived to the station needed to wait for the water level to decrease and, even after this happened, had to deal with much mud throughout that day. The Metro directory emphasized that the station operation wasn't interrupted, because it was projected above the region flooding quota, that has "cronichal problems with floodings". One of these measures predicted a reinforcement in the surface water draining, but it's enough only if the river doesn't flood.

## Characteristics

The station is located between Avenida Presidente Wilson and Rua Guamiranga, having access to both roads. The Metro station is elevated with side platforms, while the CPTM one is a surface station with two island platforms. Its mezzanine is common to both Metro and CPTM.

# Kreis Dirschau

**Kreis Dirschau** was a Prussian district which existed with varying borders from 1772 to 1818 and from 1887 to 1920. In 1920, following World War I the district was ceded by the German Empire partly to Poland and partly to the Free City of Danzig in accordance Treaty of Versailles. From 1939 to 1945 the district in occupied Poland was re-established as part of the wartime Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia. Today the former district is in the Polish Pomeranian Voivodeship.

## History

### Kreis Dirschau from 1772 to 1818

West Prussia became part of the Kingdom of Prussia through the First Partition of Poland in 1772 and was initially divided into six large districts, including the *Dirschau* district. The northern part of Pomerelia with the towns of Dirschau, Neustadt, Putzig and Stolzenberg were part of the Dirschau district.

The Prussian provincial authorities ordinance of 30 April 1815 and its implementing provisions made the area part of Regierungsbezirk Danzig in the province of West Prussia. With a comprehensive district reform, new smaller districts were formed on 1 April 1818. The area of the old Dirschau district was incorporated into the newly formed Karthaus, Danzig, Neustadt and Stargard districts.

### Kreis Dirschau from 1887 to 1920

The continuous growth of the population prompted a district reform in West Prussia. In October 1887, the new Dirschau district was created, consisting of parts of the Danzig district and the Preußisch Stargard district. The seat of the district office and the only town in the district was Dirschau (today Tczew). The district had a German majority and a significant Polish minority.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty, the Dirschau district was ceded by the German Reich on 10 January 1920. The largest part of the district with the city of Dirschau was transferred to Poland and continued as *Powiat Tczewski*. Several parishes in the north of the district were ceded to the Free City of Danzig and were incorporated into the Danziger Höhe district.

The communities in the Marienwerder district, which were transferred to Poland in 1920, were largely incorporated into the Powiat Tczewski on 1 April 1932. They had previously formed the Polish *Powiat Gniewski* from 1924, based in Gniew.

### Kreis Dirschau in Occupied Poland (1939-1945)

After the German Invasion of Poland and the subsequent annexation of the district area in violation of international law, the district was re-established as part of Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia from 1939 to 1945.

In the spring of 1945 the Red Army occupied the district, which was then restored to Poland. In the following years, most of the German inhabitants were expelled.

abstract: Kralj Petar Krešimir IV is a Kralj-class missile boat in service with the Croatian Navy. It was laid down in 1990 at the Kraljevica Shipyard as the first ship in a new class being built for the Yugoslav Navy. As the Croatian War of Independence started gaining momentum, shipyard workers stalled the completion of the ship until the remaining Yugoslav forces retreated, preserving the ship for the Croatian Navy that was being formed. After entering service, Kralj Petar Krešimir IV along with Šibenik represented the navy's main surface combatants until the end of the war, without participating in combat. Both missile boats were used in the Posejdon '94 exercise in October 1994. Although Kralj Petar Krešimir IV was plagued with engine malfunctions and other equipment problems throughout its service life, it continues to serve with the Flotilla of the Croatian Navy along with four other missile boats. The ship was the main motive for a series of postage stamps issued by the Hrvatska pošta as well as souvenir coins.

# Croatian missile boat Kralj Petar Krešimir IV (RTOP-11)

***Kralj Petar Krešimir IV*** (pennant number RTOP-11) is a Kralj-class missile boat in service with the Croatian Navy. It was laid down in 1990 at the Kraljevica Shipyard as the first ship in a new class being built for the Yugoslav Navy. As the Croatian War of Independence started gaining momentum, shipyard workers stalled the completion of the ship until the remaining Yugoslav forces retreated, preserving the ship for the Croatian Navy that was being formed.

After entering service, *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* along with *Šibenik* represented the navy's main surface combatants until the end of the war, without participating in combat. Both missile boats were used in the Posejdon '94 exercise in October 1994. Although *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* was plagued with engine malfunctions and other equipment problems throughout its service life, it continues to serve with the Flotilla of the Croatian Navy along with four other missile boats.

The ship was the main motive for a series of postage stamps issued by the Hrvatska pošta as well as souvenir coins.

## Design and construction

*Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* was laid down in 1991 in the Kraljevica Shipyard as the first ship of the new Kobra-class missile boats that were planned for the Yugoslav Navy (JRM). The ship was to be named after Sergej Mašera (pennant number RTOP-501) who prevented the destroyer *Zagreb* from falling into Italian hands during the Invasion of Yugoslavia. As the Croatian War of Independence broke out, shipyard workers stalled the completion of the ship until all of the Yugoslav Forces retreated following the Battle of the Barracks so they could not take the ship with them. It was launched on 21 March 1992. Although there were proposals to name the ship after the city of Vukovar that was heavily damaged during the Battle of Vukovar, Franjo Tuđman, Croatian president at the time, suggested naming the ship in accordance with Croatia's naval history. *Petar Krešimir IV* carries the name of a Croatian medieval king ("kralj" meaning "king"), Peter Krešimir IV of Croatia, who is often viewed in Croatia as having expanded the kingdom of Croatia to incorporate the Dalmatian coast and its islands.

*Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* measures 53.6 m (176 ft) in length, has a beam of 8.6 m (28 ft) and draught of 2.7 m (8.9 ft). Fully loaded the ship displaces 382 tonnes (376 long tons) while standard displacement measures 315 tonnes (310 long tons).

The ship's gun armament consists of a 57 mm (2.2 in) Bofors (left) and a 30 mm (1.2 in) AK-630 (right).

Propulsion consists of three Zvezda M504B-2 diesel engines mounted on three shafts, putting out 12,500 horsepower (9,300 kW) which enables a maximum speed of 36 knots (67 km/h; 41 mph) and a continuous speed of 32.8 knots (60.7 km/h; 37.7 mph). At a speed of 18 knots (33 km/h; 21 mph) the ship has a range of 1,700 nautical miles (3,100 km; 2,000 mi) with a 10-day endurance. The ship has a complement of 33, consisting of six officers, 19 NCOs and eight seamen.

The ship's principal armament consists of 48 RBS-15 anti-ship missiles. Gun armament consists of a single Bofors 57 mm D70 on the ship's bow and a single AK-630 CIWS placed on a higher position towards the stern. Four AIM-70 or six SAG-1 naval mines can be deployed in place of the missile launchers. Self-defense systems are made of two Wallop "Barricade" chaff/infrared decoy launchers paired with radar and laser radiation detectors. Ship sensors include a Racal-Decca BT 502 surface search and Racal-Decca 1290A navigational radar mounted on the ship's mast, as well as a Philips PEAB 9LV 249 Mk2 fire-control radar mounted above the bridge and used for guiding the ship's gun armament. A RIZ PP10M sonar is used for detecting underwater special forces operating in the near vicinity of the ship.

## Service history

*Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* was commissioned with the Croatian Navy on 7 June 1992. On 28 October 1992 Tuđman arrived on the island of Vis onboard *Petar Krešimir IV* escorted by the missile boat *Dubrovnik* and the torpedo boat *Vukovar*. The next day *Petar Krešimir IV* transported Tuđman to the city of Dubrovnik. In October 1994, *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* and *Šibenik* participated in the "Posejdon '94" exercise conducted jointly with the Croatian Air Force and Air Defence. The event was the first time Croatian Navy ships live fired an RBS-15 anti-ship missile and would also be the only instance of the RBS-15 missiles being used for the next 21 years. The next live firings didn't happen until 2015 when a single missile was launched from a coastal launcher and another one from *Petar Krešimir IV*'s sister ship, *Kralj Dmitar Zvonimir*.

The ship's engines proved to be problematic since it was commissioned; because they were designed for providing high speed bursts during a short period of time, they're not suited for longer patrols at lower speeds, have a high fuel consumption and have been partially operational for most of the time; problems that would plague *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* throughout its service life.

In 2004 one of its engines was out of order with the two remaining ones in need of an overhaul. The fire control system for the ship to ship missiles was non operational for some time at that point. A 2005 study highlighted the need for the modernization of *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* with its engines and combat systems being designated as a priority. In June 2006 the Ministry of Defense issued the *Croatian Armed Forces Long Term Development Plan 2006–2015* (hr. *Dugoročni plan razvoja Oružanih snaga Republike Hrvatske 2006–2015*) in which it was stated that one of the Navy's priorities was equipping *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* with new engines and anti-aircraft systems. The planned modernisation wasn't carried out, instead the ship was docked and underwent only basic maintenance during 2010.

On 28 August 2008 Slobodna Dalmacija reported that certain countries were interested in buying *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV*, among them Georgia who lost most its fleet during the Russia–Georgia war; according to the report, the deal was stopped by Russia. Although the MoD declined to comment on the potential sale to Georgia, they did confirm that they would consider offers if any were given, as well as that the ship would remain in service until a deal was made. In 2010 frigate lieutenant Antonija Didović assumed command of *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* becoming the first female commander in the Navy's history. Didović began her officer career in January 2006 as the commanding officer of the Ship's Weapon Section (*Oružni brodski odred*) before being promoted to first officer in 2008 and finally commander on 1 July 2010.

A report about the state of the armed forces in 2011 stressed out the inoperability of the engines on *Petar Krešimir IV* as the single biggest maintenance problem for the Navy. In November 2013 the MoD announced the overhaul of *Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* as one of their plans for 2014. Work on the ship which included a major overhaul of its engines, was finished by 18 June 2014 at the Prgin nautical center in Šibenik. After a test drive at maximum speed, the ship was once again declared fully operational; for the first time since mid-2011 when it was out of service because of technical problems.

## Accolades

*Kralj Petar Krešimir IV* was featured in a series of postage stamps issued by the Hrvatska pošta named "Hrvatsko brodovlje" (en. Croatian ships). Published from 27 August 1998, the series was printed in two million copies. In 2012 the Croatian Numismatic Club issued a souvenir coin marking the 20th anniversary of the ship being launched.

title: Breton Women at a Pardon

abstract: Breton Women at a Pardon is an 1887 oil on canvas by the French academic painter Pascal Dagnan-Bouveret. It shows seven women sitting on grass in a churchyard waiting for a ceremony to begin. The painting is composed of sombre tones, and the women have a serene calmness and a demeanour described as the embodiment of "simplicity and piety". The women are dressed in traditional Breton costumes, which in the late 19th century would have been reserved for such an event: various starched white headdresses and collars worn over long, plain dark dresses. They are huddled in conversation while two men stand to their left with heads bowed, looking coyly at the women. The men have round black hats and are similarly dressed in black with white collars. This work is the culmination of a series of Breton paintings and follows directly from the similar 1886 The Pardon in Brittany. It has a photorealistic look; Dagnan-Bouveret often used photographs as well as drawings and oil sketches when preparing for a finished canvas. There are many known photographic studies and drawings for both the Breton series in general and this work in particular. One photograph shows a grassy area in which the artist had a friend pose, and another a view of the church seen here in the background, complete with the festival flags protruding from the lower spire. The vertical framing and almost uncomfortable proximity of the women add to its 'snapshot' aspect. From the photographs, the painting is known to have been posed at the Pardon de Rumengol, Finistère, Brittany. Breton Women at a Pardon was first exhibited at the Salon in 1889, where it drew acclaim and won the Grand Prise. It is often compared to Paul Gauguin's at the time controversial 1888 Vision After the Sermon and Émile Bernard's 1888 Breton Women in the Meadow, as much for contrast in approach and in critical reaction, as for their thematic and compositional similarities. Gauguin and Bernard were seen as radicals at the time and disdained at the Salon.

# Pleasant Township, Knox County, Ohio

**Pleasant Township** is one of the twenty-two townships of Knox County, Ohio, United States. The 2020 census found 1,657 people in the township.

## Geography

Located in the center of the county, it borders the following townships:

Part of the city of Mount Vernon, the county seat of Knox County, occupies parts of northwestern Pleasant Township.

## Name and history

Pleasant Township was established on March 9, 1825, and was named for its scenic landscapes. On December 7, 1838 the county commissioners split off the northeast quarter of the township to create College Township in honor of Kenyon College. There are no incorporated villages in the township, but the unincorporated community of Hunt once had a store and post office near the only railroad station in the township along what was then the Sandusky, Mansfield and Newark Railroad (later, the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad).

It is one of fifteen Pleasant Townships statewide.

## Government

The township is governed by a three-member board of trustees, who are elected in November of odd-numbered years to a four-year term beginning on the following January 1. Two are elected in the year after the presidential election and one is elected in the year before it. There is also an elected township fiscal officer, who serves a four-year term beginning on April 1 of the year after the election, which is held in November of the year before the presidential election. Vacancies in the fiscal officership or on the board of trustees are filled by the remaining trustees.

# Senegal one-striped grass mouse

***Lemniscomys linulus***, commonly known as the **Senegal grass mouse** or **Senegal one-striped grass mouse**, is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found in Ivory Coast, Guinea, Mali, and Senegal and its natural habitat is dry savanna. At one time considered to be a subspecies of *Lemniscomys griselda*, it is now accepted as a species in its own right.

## Description

The Senegal one-striped grass mouse has a head-and-body length of about 110 mm (4.33 in) and a tail of a similar length. The dorsal fur is a buffy-grey colour, with a yellowish tinge on the hindquarters. A clearly defined dark stripe runs along the spine, and there are some indistinct lateral stripes, composed of tiny pale spots; these markings are formed because some of the hairs have pale-coloured tips, and in some individuals they are barely visible. The underparts are white, with a buff-coloured line separating the dorsal and ventral colorations. The tail is dark above, ochre at the sides and buff underneath. The feet are clad in buff-coloured hairs. Similar species with which it might be confused are *Lemniscomys striatus* and *Lemniscomys zebra*, but both of these have distinct pale-coloured lateral stripes.

## Distribution and habitat

The Senegal one-striped grass mouse is endemic to West Africa where it occurs to the west of the Dahomey Gap, in Mali, Ivory Coast, Guinea and Senegal. It is found typically on dry savanna, but also occurs on wooded savanna, bushy countryside, grassland and cultivated land.

## Status

This grass mouse has a limited range in West Africa and it is said to be common in Ivory Coast. No particular threats have been identified, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed its conservation status as being of least concern.

title: Brian Smyth (Gaelic footballer)

abstract: Brian Smyth was an Irish Gaelic footballer and hurler who played as a centre-forward at senior level for the Meath county football team. Born in Batterstown, County Meath, Smyth had his first involvement with Gaelic football and hurling against Boy Scouts from Dublin, who used to come to the local area on weekend camps. He fielded with local club Batterstown in both codes but when the club was unable to muster enough players, he lined out with Flathouse with whom he won a junior championship medal in hurling. He also played both codes with Ratoath before lining out with Oberstown in hurling and Skryne in Gaelic football, helping the latter to five championship victories. He finished his hurling career with Dunboyne. Smyth made his debut on the inter-county scene when he first linked up with the Meath junior hurling team in 1944. An All-Ireland medal winner in this code, he joined the Meath senior football team for the 1946 championship. Smyth went on to play a key role during a hugely successful era, and won two All-Ireland medals, four Leinster medals and one National League medal. The All-Ireland-winning captain of 1949, Smyth was also an All-Ireland runner-up on two occasions. Smyth was a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, however, he never won a Railway Cup medal. He retired from inter-county football following the conclusion of the 1957 championship. In retirement from playing, Smyth became involved in team management and administration. His involvement as a trainer was short-lived, however, he guided Drumree to championship success in the junior grade in 1959. Smyth became involved in administrative affairs as a teenager when he took over as secretary of the Batterstown club. He was secretary of the Meath Hurling Board on two occasions, before serving as chairman of the Meath County Board between 1979 and 1985.

# CUBRIC

The **Cardiff University Brain Research Imaging Centre** (**CUBRIC**) is a brain imaging centre, part of Cardiff University's Science and Innovation Campus in Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom. When it expanded in 2016, it was considered the most advanced brain imaging centre in Europe.

## Building

### Construction

CUBRIC was established in the Cathays Park campus of Cardiff University in 2006, and moved to a new building in the Maindy Park campus in June 2016. The new building was constructed on old railway land, with the railway aiding in the delivery of the larger scanners. It cost £44,000,000, partially funded by Cardiff University, and partially by the Welsh Government. It was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 7 June 2016.

### Awards

The new building was awarded the title of Life Science Research Building 2017 by the UK Science Park Association. It also received the "Project of the Year" and "Design Through Innovation" awards from the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, who praised it for its "precise and beautifully detailed multi-sensory design". It was also a contender for the National Eisteddfod of Wales Gold Medal for Architecture in 2017. It has been designed to create a relaxing environment volunteers, with large windows and timber structures.

## Research

Cardiff University's School of Psychology created CUBRIC to facilitate interdisciplinary brain research, using multiple neuroimaging machines and laboratory techniques. The centre houses:

A range of cognitive neuroscience studies are being carried out at CUBRIC, covering areas such as sleep research and curiosity research. The centre aims to investigate neurological aspects of conditions such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, multiple sclerosis, and dementia. One of the centre's first major research projects in the new building involved the study of Huntington's disease.

The connectome scanner generates a map of the axons in white matter, connections of the brain, by measuring the nearby movement of water molecules to 11000 millimetre (3.9×10−5 in) precision. Anomalous structures and changes to the brain's function, called biomarkers, can be identified through comparison to scans of healthy brains.
