Emotional Brain and Pathology II

Emotions are a major ingredient of human life, giving it meaning and direction. Over the last two decades, the exploration of emotions has emerged as a prolific field of study in neuroscience and psychology. Through brain imagery, physiological data, behavioral observations, and subjective ratings, scientists and clinicians have developed the ability to measure emotions in a rigorous way. This paves the way for us to decipher the spatial and temporal codes of the emotional brain.
