[FRIAM] intgegration

My understanding is that neural architecture for things like hearing and vision follows a common developmental trajectory if there aren’t faults like the cochlea being damaged.  
An image of a circle would have a decent chance of having a similar encoding in different people, but a picture of a dog maybe not so much.

But ... again:

"predictive modeling on short datasets acquired in single patients"

We're not *composing* the individuals into groups, as Dave (and McGilchrist) seem to be doing. We're modeling individuals off data taken from individuals. I'm a bit confused that I have to point this out.

So within one person, we might be able to make reliable predictions. But this idea that "regions of the brain" are activated in the same way, for the same tasks, across all (or most) people is suspect. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
