PSYC 2300 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Antidepressant, Electrocorticography, Visual Cortex
Document Summary
Embarc (establishing moderators and biosignatures of antidepressant. This multi-site nimh-funded study seeks to determine how to select optimal treatment for depression based on individual biology in the future. Neuroscience tech in this study includes mri, brain wave testing eeg and behavioral testing as well as genetic analysis. The embarc trials found nothing, people with jobs are already happy about having a job. Eeg on exam: location has to be uniform in locations. Now we have an eeg cap, use eeg gel for electro-contact. The conversion of the raw eeg from 3 electrodes (f3, c3, and p3) into the five classical eeg frequencies: from slowest to fastest (delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma) Two ex of event related potentials (erps) elicited by auditory stimuli. The waves on te left rep potentials evoked by a series of same-tone stimuli. The waves on the right represent potentials evoked by a series of 2 different tones.
