A detailed analysis of these neurons' firing pattern to approaching objects of different sizes and velocities shows that one group of neurons signals relative rate of expansion τ (tau), a second ...

How can the nervous system determine if a group of neurons is firing at the same rate? Hopfield and Brody's answer is, try to synchronize them. Neurons that are firing at the same rate can be ...

This live look at a mouse's brain tracks neurons firing by measuring oxygen levels, much like a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan. This image however, was created with ...

This year is the centennial anniversary of German psychiatrist Hans Berger's invention of electroencephalography (EEG), a way ...

A mysterious electromagnetic mechanism may be more important than the firing of neurons in our brain to explain our awareness ...

This article reports a useful set of findings on how electrophysiological response properties of neurons correlate with their position in the brain. The evidence currently remains incomplete, with ...

But Friday's demonstration will involve a robot and "neurons firing in real time", a series of tweets reveals. The interface could allow people with neurological conditions to control phones or ...

The present study looks at the phenomenon with a wider lens, asking how the many billions of neurons in the cortex are able ...

Zooming in on the auditory cortex, the researchers found three unique sets of neurons that light up while we listen to music.

Memories are created in a matter of seconds. Researchers now may have begun to uncover how behavioral timescale learning ...
