DESCRIPTION:Professor Bin He\, University of Minnesota\, USA\nBrain activ
 ity is distributed over the 3-dimensional volume and evolves in time. Mapp
 ing the spatio-temporal distribution of brain activation is of great impor
 tance for understanding the brain and aiding clinical diagnosis and manage
 ment of brain disorders. Electrophysiological source imaging from high res
 olution electroencephalography (EEG) has shown great promise for mapping b
 rain function and dysfunction. We will discuss EEG-based electrophysiologi
 cal source imaging in localizing and imaging human brain activity with app
 lications to seizure localization.\nWe will also discuss the merits and ch
 allenges of multimodal functional neuroimaging by integrating electrophysi
 ological and hemodynamic measurements. Our work indicates that the BOLD fu
 nctional MRI and EEG can be integrated in a principled way\, leading to su
 bstantially enhanced spatio-temporal resolution for functional imaging of 
 dynamic brain activation. Finally\, we will discuss the co-localization of
  hemodynamic and electrophysiological signals associated with motor imager
 y tasks\, and discuss our recent progress in EEG based brain-computer inte
 rface\, demonstrating that humans can control a quadcopter or a robotic ar
 m by “mind” from noninvasive EEG signals.\nBio: Bin He\, Ph.D.\nDistin
