Brain Mapping and Working (HAYLE MEDICAL)

Functional brain mapping has acquired significant influence on academic and clinical practice and a large amount of grants are being issued to this branch of neuroscience to boost experimental and practical implementations, and to uncover the mysteries in this field. The most successful approach to unlock the mysteries of the brain, as said żeby Jay Ingram, is to bring together an interdisciplinary network of scientists and clinicians to encourage an interchange of ideas. This method of exchange is the main focus of this book. Some of the main chapters included in this book are cross modal influence of odor hedonics on facial attractiveness: behavioural and fMRI measures, optimized signal separation for 3D-polarized light imaging, causal relationships and network parameters in effective brain connectivity, and mapping of angiogenesis aby magnetic resonance imaging.
