Question: What did you find interesting about neuroimaging?

Hi Molly! 🙂 Thank you so much for your question! The thing I found more interesting about neuroimaging is because we can observe what happens in our brain during cognitive processes. We usually observe our behaviour to understand what happens in our brain, that it is a more indirect phenomenon of our brain activity. Instead, with the neuroimaing techniques we are able to see more directly which areas are involved while we are making a decision, for example or while we are paying attention to something in the environment.
