A new study showcases how brain waves known as alpha oscillations help us distinguish between ourselves and the outside world ...
People with spinal cord injuries often lose movement even though their brains still send the right signals. Researchers ...
Scientists in the UK have manipulated two prominant types of brain wave while volunteers slept, in an effort to develop better tools to study critical neurological activities. The waves, referred to ...
In A Nutshell Alpha brain waves cycling at 8-13 times per second determine how wide your “temporal binding window,” or the time gap your brain tolerates between seeing and feeling a touch while still ...
So how does the brain keep track of when different sensory signals come in from the body? It relies on certain rhythmic waves ...
On neuroscience’s big stage Nov. 15, MIT Professor Earl K. Miller will propose that thought and consciousness emerge from the fast and flexible organization of the cortex produced by the analog ...
Gamma brain waves are rhythmic electric processes in nerve cells called neurons. Nerve activity in the brain allows for communication throughout the brain to carry out functions such as memory, ...
