The intersection between neuroscience and history frames Carson
Fellow Edmund P. Russell’s research project. Russell looks as the
role of functional magnetic resonance imagining (FMRI) in
historical research, especially with regard to its effect on human
understanding of different types of environments. Edmund P. Russell
is an associate professor at the Department of Science, Technology,
and Society and the Department of History at the University of
Virginia. His research focuses on environmental history and the
history of technology.
