Why do some individuals take more dangers than others when confronted with unpredictability? Does brain activity vary in between risk-seeking and risk-averse bettors? What can we find out about human decision-making from research study including intracranial electrode recordings, and can we manage choices with deep brain stimulation? What are the ramifications?
In this Dana Foundation Brain Lecture with Secret Science Club, we check out the “wired” brain and how research study including deep brain electrodes informs us what’s occurring in our brains when we bet. Prepare to check out the inner functions of the “body electrical” with neuroscientist Sridevi Sarma.
Sridevi Sarma is a neuroscientist, biomedical engineer, teacher, and the associate director of the Institute for Computational Medicine at Johns Hopkins University. The author of over 150 clinical documents, she is the recipient of various awards, consisting of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers. In 2015, Dr. Sarma was the winner of the inaugural “Pitch It On!” competitors for her creation EZTrack, which develops a heat map of the brain to assist physicians figure out the source of seizures in drug-resistant epilepsy clients. She has actually appeared frequently as a highlighted researcher on the Emmy-award-winning NatGeo series Brain Games.
The Dana Foundation is a personal humanitarian company committed to advancing comprehending about the brain in health and illness through research study grants and public outreach.
The Secret Science Club is a science lecture, arts, and efficiency series, based at The Bell House in Brooklyn, curated by Dorian Devins and Margaret Mittelbach.
