ways of studying the brain

• spatial resolution- how accurate we can be in identifying the exact location of a brain structure or brain activity in space. (where activty happens)
• temporal resolution- level of accuracy in identifying the exact location of brain activity in time (when activity happened)
• some researchers have conducted studies combining the effects of EEG and FMRI, comparing results of tasks performed with both, in order to take advantage of the high temporal resolution of EEG and spatial resolution of FMRI
