Description

Three different types of research have been carried out on brain-mind relationships: 1) research on the anatomical correlates of special talents (for example, perfect pitch) or deficits (for example, dyslexia), 2) research on the relationship between a given cognitive syndrome and the site of brain damage, and 3) research on localizing cognitive functions in vivo brain with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and position emission tomography (PET). fMRI is a technique of unparalleled importance because it is non-invasive. This paper presents a tutorial covering basic aspects of this technique as well as a report on recent research results from our laboratory concerning fMRI data related to language and emotion.
