Scientists Scan My Brain to See If I’m a Genius

The other day I got an invitation to a windowless office building in downtown Manhattan to get a quantitative electroencephalogram, which is designed to measure brain wave patterns as electrical signals. It is being increasingly used to analyze various aspects of brain function, including things like cognitive flexibility, intelligence, and even creativity. Then I’ll be jumping on a call with the neuroscientist Andrew Hill, who has a Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience from UCLA. He analyzed my brain and the results honestly shocked me.
