43 sec read

We just published a big and long study. It is a NIRS hyperscanning study aiming to investigate the brain difference between men and women during cooperation. We have scanned 222 people! And it is one of the largest NIRS study I have seen. And it is a long study. The project started in 2012 (today is 2016/6/13). You can imagine how long it took to collect and analyze the data, and to get the paper published!

After a series of rejections (Nature -> Journal of Neuroscience -> PNAS -> NeuroImage), this paper was finally published in Scientific Reports this month (2016/06). The full-text of this paper is accessible via PubMed Central.
