Welcome to Episode 1 of the Stein Fireside Podcast! Join Dr. Kai Miller and Dr. Bryan Klassen from Mayo Clinic as they sit down with Dr. Chris Honey, a number one knowledgeable in cognitive neuroscience, for a captivating dialog on how the mind stitches collectively actuality throughout time.
In this episode, we discover:
• The science behind short-term reminiscence and distributed mind networks
• How intracranial recordings reveal the mind’s dynamic timescales
• The way forward for brain-computer interfaces and neural decoding
• Why understanding reminiscence integration issues for neurosurgery and affected person care
If you’re interested by large-scale mind dynamics, neural hierarchies, and the intersection of neuroscience, Subscribe for extra episodes on innovation in neurosurgery and mind science.
