My Brain

I recently volunteered to take part in a study that is meant to see whether computer exercises can make a person more intelligent.  As part of the study, I went in today to get an fMRI while I did some cognitive tests.  It was like something out of science fiction complete with a strange, eerie soundtrack (from the buzz, humm, beep, and thump of the machine as it scanned me).  By the end of it I was struggling to stay awake, and when they pulled me out of the machine my neck was very stiff.  In any case, after I finished, they sent me this picture of my brain, so, in case any of you were wondering what it’s like inside my head, here’s your answer!

Note: I was able to select the view of my brain that I wanted to receive, but playing around with it, it all looked very much the same.  I picked one that seemed to show a lot of different things.  I have no idea what any of this is…

    Were you thinking about morelles? It looks like a sideways mushroom there at the back toward the bottom. Pretty neat :)
