Bridging Animal Models and Humans
- Applying animal model findings to human EEG enables interpretation of brain function from crude data.
- This approach reveals precise brain function patterns even with simpler tools.
Modeling Brain Function in Families
- Dr. Lee applied brain function modeling to family with unclear brain disorders.
- The models precisely identified problem areas and predicted symptoms, showing clinical usefulness.
System-Level Brain Understanding Needed
- Understanding brain disorders requires system-level functional insights, not just cellular ablation.
- A system diagnostics approach parallels how technicians fix complex machines like phones.
