fNIRS can robustly measure brain activity during memory encoding and retrieval in healthy subjects
Just published in Scientific Reports by Meryem Yucel and her colleagues Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most frequent cause of severe memory loss in the elderly. Early detection of AD is the key to preventing, slowing or stopping the disease. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive neuroimaging technique capable of monitoring brain activation. Here, researchers […]
