In this podcast Dr. Amishi Jha describes the brain’s attention system as “the lifeblood of our experience”. Using fMRI, EEGs, and behavioral measures she studies the brain’s ability to notice and focus on specific information, both external and internal, the degradation caused by stress, and how mindfulness training can strengthen and improve attention, especially for nurses, physicians, and other frontline workers.
