Beware of the learning style myth! See and share this video (https://t.co/DWL07GPVav) in which I describe a recent journal article (https://t.co/xybZIWcx9B) providing yet another reason not to perpetuate this myth. Enjoy!

@EvaTelzer Two 16*16 -- it certainly has to do with your research question but more channels definitely give more flexibility when building your cap. I never had hyperscanning experience but for my projects, 8*8 usually only covers ROIs of roughly one hemisphere. Hope it helps!

[Xin Sun @xinsun1007]

@EvaTelzer NIRSport2 is great but I would definitely recommend a 16-16 system :)
