Bored at Work?

According to Dr Eichele of Norway and Dr Stefan Debener of the UK, when the brain switches to autopilot is when we are likely to start making mistakes. The brain economizes by shifting electrical activity from the prefrontal cortex (attention) to the default mode network.

I can't want for them to figure out brains which sit in the default mode network are more likely to develop Alzheimer's or dementia. :)
