Understanding how the brain operates is a monumental task, and scientists have long relied on neuroimaging techniques to capture and analyze brain activity. However, analyzing this data is far from straightforward due to the unique shape of each individual’s brain. A new study from Dartmouth researchers has introduced a groundbreaking tool that promises to make this process more accurate and efficient: the “OpenNeuro Average” (onavg) cortical surface template. This innovative template was developed using data from over 1,000 brain scans and represents a significant advancement in the field of …
