Key aspects of brain function can only be understood by recording from the entire brain in parallel, rather than parts of it in sequence. While fMRI has excellent full-brain coverage and spatial resolution, its temporal resolution is limited by the relatively slow hemodynamic response. And while electrophysiological approaches have excellent temporal resolution, they either 1) don't cover the entire brain (microscopic electrophysiology) or 2) have limited spatial resolution (macroscopic electrophysiology).
