Aug. 19, 2013 — By analysing MRI images of the brain with an elegant   
   mathematical model, it is possible to reconstruct thoughts more accurately   
   than ever before. In this way, researchers from Radboud University Nijmegen   
   have succeeded in determining    
   which letter a test subject was looking at.   
      
   The journal Neuroimage has accepted the article, which will be published soon.   
      
   Functional MRI scanners have been used in cognition research primarily to   
   determine which brain areas are active while test subjects perform a specific   
   task. The question is simple: is a particular brain region on or off? A   
   research group at the Donders    
   Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour at Radboud University has gone a   
   step further: they have used data from the scanner to determine what a test   
   subject is looking at.
