Patients with schizophrenia who hear voices have strong activation in the superior temporal auditory areas. What is not clear is whether these are driven by a top-down effect or not.

Really good to be studying guppy and a robofish. We need to get down to basics.

The trouble is Musk doesn’t publish. He presents demonstrations as if was trying to sell a new Iphone.

John Duncan would be pleased with these results given his views on a multiple-demand system The difference is that it looks to be a general principle of brain function.
And SWR can be found in humans.
Eleanor Maguire has used optical pumpted magnetometers to show that when we recall events from our life or imagine future events the medial prefrontal cortex is activated before the hippocampus, and so ''drives' it. It is connected via the retrosplenial cortex (which then connects with the hippocampus).
Hasn't Hakwan Lau been saying fpr a long time that the prefrontal cortex acts as a reality monitor? And used signal detection theory to model it? Doesn't take way from an empirical demonstration that indeed signal strength is the critical variable.

This is dreadful. It is clear that the managers are risk averse. But students are of an age when they take risks. Clearly the result is a disaster.
Why use fNIRS rather than OPMs. I understand the advantages of fNIRS over fMRI. But surely the aim is to understand HOW the brain works and that requires a msec resolution.
