Scientists have discovered a universal pattern of brain waves in multiple primate species, including humans. This pattern of electrical activity is seen in the six layers of tissue that cover the ...

The electrical signals rippling across the brain during and after physical activity offer a measurable window into how ...

Sleep and wake: they’re totally distinct states of being that define the boundaries of our daily lives. For years, scientists have measured the difference between these instinctual brain processes by ...

Who needs a crystal ball when you’ve got artificial intelligence? Researchers at Mass General Brigham have developed a potentially game-changing AI tool capable of detecting subtle changes in brain ...

Understanding the link between brain activity and behavior is among the core interests of neuroscience. Having a better grasp of this relationship will both help scientists understand how the brain ...

For the first time, scientists have discovered that a small region of our brain shuts down to take microsecond-long naps while we're awake. What's more, these same areas 'flicker' awake while we're ...

In A Nutshell Researchers used a light-based brain imaging technique in mice to watch, in real time, what happens in the brain during a psychedelic experience and found a specific electrical rhythm ...

Neuroscientists are now able to trace specific patterns of life experience and learning by mapping specific patterns of brain waves. The ability to take a snapshot of individual brain wave patterns ...

Unique brain wave patterns, spotted for the first time in autistic children, may help explain why they have so much trouble communicating. Using an imaging helmet that resembles a big salon hair dryer ...

(NEW YORK) — Can a baby’s brain waves predict the chance of autism? New research that looked at brain wave patterns of babies and toddlers showed the answer is likely yes. A research group in Boston ...
