Understanding the Patient-Clinician Relationship with ‘Hyperscanning’ fMRI
The quality of the patient-clinician relationship is widely held to impact a patient’s response to treatment. Exactly how, though, has long remained a mystery. In a study reported in October 2020, Martinos Center researchers began to explore the questions of which parts of the brain and which typ...
