Summary:
- Researchers at NUI Galway have developed a new technique that can measure brain activity in real-time during complex tasks. This allows them to better understand how the brain functions and processes information.
- The technique uses a combination of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG) to capture both the spatial and temporal aspects of brain activity. This provides a more comprehensive picture of brain function compared to using just one method.
- The researchers believe this new approach could lead to improved diagnosis and treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders, as well as a better understanding of how the healthy brain works during everyday activities.
