Mapping the human brain
For more than a hundred years, neuroscientists have argued over a single seemingly simple question: how many different areas make up the brain? A team of scientists at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri have charted what may be the most accurate map of the brain to date. Andrea Vasquez talks to neuroscientists Matthew Glasser and David Van Essen via Google Hangout.
