Giulio Tononi Area Quotations

What we needed to do was stimulate an area of the brain and see if it talks to another part. We have a tool to do that now.

Essentially, we activate an area. We can do this anywhere in the brain. Once an area is activated, it responds by sending signals, waves that travel through the axons (nerve fibers) to other regions of the brain. At the same time, we can record how the rest of the brain is responding.
