American Scientists Successfully Mapps Human Thought

American Scientists Successfully Mapps Human Thought Brain Mapi. A study published in the journal PNAS revealed that American scientists of US National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering, for the first time have successfully tracked human thought by imaging rapidly fluctuating brain activity. The scientists made use of fast functional magnetic resonance imaging

(FMRI), which measures changes in blood oxygenation associated with higher order brain functions.

The new discovery is a significant step towards mapping human cognitive functions such as perception, attention, and awareness.
