Tropical birds’ ‘silent spring,’ and mapping people’s brains during surgery
Warren Cornwall, an environmental reporter who witnessed shrinking bird populations in Brazil, and Raouf Belkhir, an M.D.-Ph.D. student researching awake brain mapping. They discuss quieting tropical forests and which birds are most affected. They also cover refined awake stimulation techniques that track timing effects to better map speech processing during surgery.
