This article describes a recent workshop at which advancements in the study of the structure and function of the brain were discussed. Although studies utilizing techniques of MRI, electroencephalography and magnetoencephalography have been useful, positron emission tomography is the only technique capable, at present, of giving images of activity across the entire brain.
