Summary
How do brain areas communicate in order to make sense of our world and make decisions? How does this communication develop in childhood, or indeed in the womb? A new neuroimaging system based on quantum sensor technology can exquisitely measure the tiny magnetic signals generated by the human brain, allowing us to answer these – and many other – questions in unprecedented detail.
