Brains sync when collaborating on a task- even when they are not physically together. The corresponding study was published in Neuropsychologia. When people interact, their brains activate in a ...

In the 17 th century, the Dutch scientist Christiaan Huygens hanged two of his recently invented pendulum clocks on a wooden beam and observed that as time passed, the clocks aligned their beats. He ...

Study finds that interaction between strangers leads to higher levels of inter- and intra-brain synchronization compared to that in close acquaintances. We experience the world and connect with others ...

Neuroscientists are finding that when two people interact, their brains do not work in isolation. Instead, patterns of activity in one brain begin to mirror patterns in another, hinting that human ...

When the brain is under pressure, certain neural signals begin to move in sync – much like a well-rehearsed orchestra. A new study from Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) is the first to show ...

In the early 20th century scientists began to record brain activity using electrodes attached to the scalp. To their surprise, they saw that brain activity is characterized by slow and rapid ascending ...

To understand differences in neural activity between FXS and non-FXS individuals when responding to different frequencies, Thorpe said, researchers played an auditory “chirp,” or sound stimulus, and ...

The doctor quoted new researchers who observed a surge in high-frequency brain waves known as 'ripples' immediately following a brief session on a bicycle. These ripples originate in the hippocampus, ...

Each year, thousands of stroke survivors are left with hemianopia, a condition that causes loss of half of their visual field (the “vertical midline”). Hemianopia severely affects daily ...
