Research Week 3

This week was just more of the same, research on the topic of immersion. With most of the papers going over the same topics, it felt like going in circles trying to find something of interest.

The only paper of interest was "A Single-Neuron Correlate of Change Detection and Change Blindness in the Human Medial Temporal Lobe, Current Biology (2006)" by scientist Leila Reddy.

This paper is finding out whether change blindness can be tracked in the activity
of single cells within the temporal lobe.



After researching more about the temporal lobe, It was interesting to find out the key functions of this part of the brain of on Speech, Hearing, Emotional Responses and Long-Term Memory.

More research on this topic is needed, but this could be an interesting area to base our research and question for the overall project.
