Memory formation requires higher-frequency ripples in the hippocampus and lower-frequency ripples in the parietal cortex. However, to make a memory stick, coordinated high-frequency ripples between the hippocampus and parietal cortex are required.
Study reveals how rhythmic brain activity shapes our perception.
A new study reveals brain oscillations associated with memory retrieval alter in the moments before death, suggesting the brain may replay significant life events just before we die.
Entrainment can safely manipulate brain waves to induce improvements in memory, a new study reveals.
Study provides new insight into how brain waves control the flow of information through the cortex.
Using non-invasive brain stimulation, researchers stimulated the lateral prefrontal cortex and medial prefrontal cortex, enhancing executive function and self control.
Researchers have identified alterations in neural circuitry that impact cerebral cortex pathology. These alterations could be key to cognitive deficits in Down syndrome.
Researchers detect coordinated oscillations in the activity of two different areas of the brain which are characteristic of the fear response.
Researchers have discovered a brain circuit that can trigger small regions of the brain to fall asleep or become less alert, while the rest of the brain remains awake.
A new study appears to support the neural noise hypothesis, which proposes the signal to noise ratio in neural circuits diminishes with aging.
