Ep. 20 - Functional Connectivity & The Default Mode Network ft. Alex Bailey
from Abstract: The Future of Science Hosted by Jeremy Ullman
Our guest this week is recent undergraduate and winner of CJAP's 2020 Podcast Guest Opportunity Award, Alex Bailey. It was an absolute treat to have Alex on the podcast this week and our conversation was truly eye-opening: ear candy for all! We answer questions like: What is functional connectivity and the network theory of the brain? What is the Default Mode Network and the nature of resting brain activity? What is fMRI and when/why do we use it? We also discuss how our brain compares to the "Reptilian" brain, the future of research using multimodal techniques, and the role of specific brain regions in the orchestration of neural activity. This and much more on episode 20 of Abstract -- let's go! If you like what you heard and you're interested in reaching out to Alex you can reach him by email at: [email protected].
