Mapping the Brain

The video tutorial explains how functional imaging is used to map the visual field in the brain. It describes a simple experiment involving moving and still dots to identify active brain regions using fMRI data. The tutorial discusses the variability of results across different subjects and explores experiments on brain areas processing shapes and faces. It also covers the mapping of the cortical surface and visual areas, highlighting the importance of functional imaging in understanding brain anatomy.

How long does it typically take to create a detailed map of the visual field in an experiment?

Explain the significance of the Calcuran sulcus in brain mapping.

What variations might exist in the representation of the visual field among different individuals?
