The Impact of Life Experience on the Human Brain
The brain develops and morphs across the lifespan based on experience. Two talks discuss the impact of our behaviors from physical exercise to cell phone […]
Three Talks on Individual Differences in the Brain and Behavior
There are many dimensions along which individual differences manifest in the brain and behavior from how we see, smell and perceive the world. Hear three […]
Structural and Dynamical Changes in The Developing Brain
What changes structurally and dynamically in the brain across childhood and how similar are our development trajectories? Dr. Mills and Dr. Miscovic provide two perspectives […]
Intraperson Variability in fMRI Challenges Years of Research
Large intraperson variability in fMRI results for the same task questions the interpretation of decades of research, and makes a stronger case for EEG research. […]
The Impact of Individual Differences in Neuroimaging Data
Inter and intra person variability in brain metrics across the population can result in misleading interpretation of results. It is important to understand the distributions […]
Dead or Alive? Rethinking the Flat Line EEG
Death is commonly declared with the observation of a flat line or isoelectric EEG that is irreversible. Yet there are many caveats, challenges and ambiguities […]
The Radically Changing View of the Cerebellum
Long thought to be purely involved in motor activity, new roles have been discovered for the cerebellum in cognition. Yet so long on a backfoot […]
Stimulation, Sensation and Localization in the Cortex
Some aspects of cortical localization are well established but it may be the atypical responses to cortical stimulation that hold the keys to the the […]
The Illusion of Reality
Optical illusions demonstrate how our brains filter sensory stimulii and fit it into a construct that ‘makes sense’ to us. Can we measure our […]
