Human Brain Mapping - General

General

  • Most imaging work to date on individual neurons has been conducted outside the brain, typically on large neurons, and has been most frequently destructive. New techniques are however rapidly emerging. Search on "Single neuron imaging" and see related topics: Biological neuron model, Single-unit recording, Neural oscillation#Single neuron model, Computational neuroscience#Single-neuron modeling. dMRI (above) is also promising in non-destructive imaging of single neurons inside the brain.

Famous quotes containing the word general:

    “Of what use, however, is a general certainty that an insect will not walk with his head hindmost, when what you need to know is the play of inward stimulus that sends him hither and thither in a network of possible paths?”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “At that,
    his small size,
    keen eyes,
    serviceable beak
    and general truculence
    assure his survival—”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)

    “We have grown literally afraid to be poor. We despise anyone who elects to be poor in order to simplify and save his inner life. If he does not join the general scramble and pant with the money-making street, we deem him spiritless and lacking in ambition.”
    —William James (1842–1910)
