Driving human visual cortex, visually and electrically

The development of circuit-based therapeutics to treat neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases require detailed localization and understanding of electrophysiological signals in the human brain. Electrodes can record and stimulate circuits in many ways, and we often rely on non-invasive imaging methods to predict the location to implant electrodes. However, electrophysiological and imaging signals measure the underlying tissue in a fundamentally different manner. To integrate multimodal data and benefit from these complementary measurements, I will describe an approach that considers how different measurements integrate signals across the underlying tissue. I will show how this approach helps relate fMRI and intracranial EEG measurements and provides new insights into how electrical stimulation influences human brain networks.
