What a dream looks like
Summary:
Researchers in Germany created the dream machine. Scientists used an fMRI scanner to take pictures of someone’s brain while they were dreaming. The scan images were taken during the dream to help researchers understand how the brain works when it makes dreams.
Critique:
This article was written more for kids. It was short and sweet and to the point.
Impact:
I thought it was crazy how scientists can see how our brain is in activity when we are dreaming. This helps scientists learn how the brain combines thoughts and memories to form dreams.
