Neural Oscillations

A digital collage featuring a brain illustration, distorted human faces, signal towers, abstract waves, and scattered data points and text on a blue and gray background.
A universal signature could make surgeries safer — and help reveal what holds consciousness together.
Black and white wireframe rendering of a human brain, with the left hemisphere shown in sparse lines and the right hemisphere rendered more densely detailed, highlighting areas associated with cognition.
A new framework describes how thought arises from the coordination of neural activity driven by oscillating electric fields — a.k.a. brain “waves” or “rhythms.”
A silhouette of a person standing out amidst a crowd, evoking memories and exploring the complexities of consciousness.
High-frequency oscillations that ripple through our brains may generate memory and conscious experience.
It's spooky, and it's happening all around us. And inside us.
A researcher explains a little-known niche within modern physics: animal collective behavior.
