Electrical signals from the brain could help identify potential issues in the organ's development, a new study reports. Scientists from the University of Fribourg in Switzerland and the University of ...

Scientists have discovered how damage to the myelin sheath—the insulating layer around nerve fibers—affects brain activity during sleep.

A new study reveals that myelin sheath damage triggers epileptiform spikes and slows REM oscillations during sleep.

Whether the treatment of rhythmic and periodic electroencephalographic (EEG) patterns in comatose survivors of cardiac arrest improves outcomes is uncertain. We conducted an open-label trial of ...

Scientists have shown for the first time that briefly tuning into a person's individual brainwave cycle before they perform a learning task dramatically boosts the speed at which cognitive skills ...

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test that records the brain’s electrical activity. Healthcare professionals use it to help assess and understand neurological conditions, sleep disorders, and brain ...

Precise shooting performance depends not only on long-trained muscle memory but also on the brain's "high-efficiency rhythms." A recent systematic review published in Intelligent Sports and Health has ...

First study to show that delivering information at the natural tempo of our neural pulses accelerates our ability to learn. Participants who received a simple 1.5-second visual cue at their personal ...
