How can we find systematic relationships between the self and the world? By mapping the brain says Jack Gallant, and he is sharing beautiful brain imaging tools and visuals to show us. Jack Gallant is Chancellor's Professor of Psychology at the University of California at Berkeley, and he is affiliated with several other departments and graduate programs at UCB (EECS, Bioengineering, Neuroscience, Biophysics, Vision Science). He received his Ph.D. from Yale University, and he did postdoctoral work at the California Institute of Technology and Washington University Medical School. He is known for his neurophysiology work on the representation of natural scenes, the function of area V4 and its modulation by attention; and for the development of the voxelwise modeling approach in human fMRI and its application to vision, attention and language perception. His current research program focuses on computational modeling and mapping of human brain activity under a wide variety of naturalistic conditions. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
