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 ...

Researchers use MEG imaging to show that the brain reactivates "forgotten" memories, but they only reach consciousness if they pulse at a specific rhythm.

Central pattern-generating networks produce the rhythmic motor discharges that underlie many repetitive movements, such as those in locomotion, respiration and feeding 1. Synaptic inhibition is ...

Researchers have developed a system which uses light stimulation to modulate brain waves. This opens up new avenues to explore for possible treatment of conditions such as epilepsy, Parkinson's and ...

Researchers have used brain imaging to show how memories can be reactivated in the brain without them reaching conscious awareness, showing that these memories persist even when we think they have ...

It has long been known that oscillatory neural activity is a key factor for attentional selection in the mammalian brain. Scientists have now investigated how this works. They found that coupling ...

Rhythm is a central component of music. Rhythm refers to the absolute timing of individual notes or sounds. The ability to perceive and produce rhythm enables people to make music. Research has shown ...
