who made drawing of the brain? (2) - Answer -Vesalius -Willis and Wren Gall proposals (2) - Answer -argued different brain regions had different functions (localized brain functions). This contrasts with the holistic view: every part of the brain participates in every function

What does EEG measure? - Answer changes in synaptic activation on the cortex--does not measure firing rate What are some disadvantages of EEG? - Answer Electrical signals attenuate, giving EEG poor spatial resolution, can not measure deep structures, only measuring neurons in a certain orientation.
