New research links brain waves directly to memory
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
Neurons in the brain generate rhythmic patterns of electrical activity. One of the unanswered problems in neuroscience is what generates these rhythmic signals, known as oscillations. Researchers at the University of Arizona discovered that simply remembering experiences might trigger them,

Do you know tracking brain waves can reduce post-op complications? Study f
Updated : 2 years, 7 months ago IST
When patients are put under general anaesthesia, their brain activity frequently slows as they fall asleep. Higher anaesthetic medication dosages can cause an even deeper state of unconsciousness called burst suppression, which is associated with cognitive deficits once the patient awakens.

Astronomers discover clues about stellar 'glitching'
Updated : 3 years, 2 months ago IST
Astronomers have found a way to peer into the physics of some of the brightest stars in the sky. Using data from NASA's Kepler space telescope, an international team of researchers has found new evidence that red giants, dying stars that have exhausted their supply of hydrogen and are in the

Study: Synchronized neural oscillations induce empathic behaviour in brain
Updated : 3 years, 3 months ago IST
The underlying neurological mechanism that enables humans to feel empathy has been identified by researchers. Empathy is brought on by synchronised neuronal oscillations in the right hemisphere of the brain, which enables the creatures to sense and share each other's dread.

Research: Brain ripples may help bind information across human cortex
Updated : 3 years, 8 months ago IST
Washington [US], July 10 (ANI): Researchers provide some of the first empirical evidence that brain ripples exist. These electrical waves have long been hypothesized as a way for the brain to integrate and encode memories.

Study finds how brain strengthens memories while sleeping
Updated : 4 years, 9 months ago IST
Birmingham [UK], May 30 (ANI): Researchers have been exploring the link between memories and sleep for a long period of time. During a recent study, they found that the two activities in the brain, slow oscillations and sleep spindles, help keep the memories strong.
