the mind machine

In this fourth episode of the podcast, I talk to Professor Frederic Dehais from the University of Toulouse. Fred talks about his background and his work applying neurosciences to the area of aviation psychology. We talk about his research into pilot error and the pros and cons of using neurophysiological methods in the cockpit, particularly EEG and fNIRS. Fred talks about the role of attention in accident formation with reference to applied neurosciences. We also talk about research in the field of neuroergonomics.
