Résumé
Using a multimodal approach, one can leverage the spatial resolution of neuroimaging methods with the high temporal resolution and precise anatomical information of intracranial recordings and the causal evidence from direct intracranial electrical stimulation of the brain in patients implanted with intracranial electrodes across multiple nodes of a given functional network. This work has already revealed previously unknown profiles of physiological activity within the human brain that could not have been attained with non-invasive methods. In this presentation, new findings from simultaneous recordings in the human thalamus and three other key sites of the memory network will be presented. The topic of the presentation will be relevant to discussions about how the brain constructs one’s sense of self.
