Dr. Dustin Scheinost - Can a Brain Scan Predict Psychosis?

What if brain scans could help explain the symptoms of a psychotic episode as they happen? And what if artificial intelligence could identify the patterns to predict them? There’s a new frontier in mental health research using functional MRI and machine learning to examine the experience of patients with psychosis. Decoding brain activity is a complex puzzle that requires a new way of thinking about psychiatric illness. Not only in terms of behavior, but in terms of networks, circuits, and connectivity.
