Live transcription from spoken Cantonese to English of research on neurophysiological basis of attentional switching

Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre 

In this brief summary, I will describe the neural basis of attentional switching. The ability to flexibly shift our attention between the external environment (i.e. reading a novel) and our inner world (i.e. reminiscing about our last vacation) is crucial for optimal performance of activities in our daily lives. I will present data that shows how the brain supports this transition between attention states using electrophysiological recordings. This summary will be presented in Cantonese with speech-to-text transcription in English (zoom or PPT 365).
