started statistical inference with my old professor.
this initial discovery has led to mountains of papers on so called mapping the brain and generalizations to harder areas such as trying to investigate the ways in which different areas of the brain try to communicate with each other using the same technology. at one point, some investigators wanted to illustrate the ways in which people can obtain false positives in this area by in fact conducting a study not with a person in the scanner but by sticking a dead salmon into the scanner and performing a rote style analysis. there are many interesting aspects to the way in which they conducted the study and many ways in which they highlight failings in performing lots of hypothesis tests without accounting for multiple comparisons. in this case, if you do lots of hypothesis tests without accounting for multiple comparisons you in fact see activation in this dead salmon. which of course as far as anyone could tell really doesn't have any sort of brain activation since it's a dead salmon.
