New tool models source of signals in brain imaging techniques

New open-source software helps scientists pinpoint where electrical signals are produced in the brain. The creators of the tool, called Human Neocortical Neurosolver, gave a précis yesterday at the 2018 Society for Neuroscience annual meeting in San Diego, California. Electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) are popular noninvasive methods for studying brain activity.
