By studying how the brain reduces noise, we can learn more about how it processes sensory inputs, makes decisions and executes them. Understanding how noise is reduced to very precise commands helps us understand how those commands are created.

To make a movement, the brain takes the electrical activity of many neurons and combines them to make muscle contractions. But the movements aren't always perfect. So we asked, what gets in the way?

Democracy is about non-arbitrary decisions. Democracy is about spreading decisions; it is not about destroying processes.

These are among the things we hope to learn. [The spokes] are obviously related to a host of processes…and may point to some important effects in understanding the magnetic field and the planet's magnetosphere, and how these systems interact with the rings and atmosphere.

I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions

Our brain is mapping the world. Often that map is distorted, but it's a map with constant immediate sensory input.
