"Have more fun" : Neurotalk S3E5 Randy Buckner

October 14, 2014/ Erica Seigneur

This week on Neurotalk, we chat with Randy Buckner about the unsurprising surprising role of the prefrontal cortex in memory, the rapid expansion of association cortex in humans, and what to do with a quarter in an MRI machine, and more. 

Dr. Buckner is a professor of psychology and neuroscience at Harvard University.
