INSIGHT

Defining Brain Function Is Key

  • Defining brain function is essential to treating brain disorders effectively.
  • Without a clear definition of function, diagnosis and restoration remain elusive.
INSIGHT

Measuring Means Controlling Function

  • Measuring brain function means being able to manipulate it to restore normalcy.
  • Combining optogenetics with fMRI reveals brain-wide circuits and single-cell activity models.
INSIGHT

Bridging Animal Models and Humans

  • Applying animal model findings to human EEG enables interpretation of brain function from crude data.
  • This approach reveals precise brain function patterns even with simpler tools.
