Achieve peak productivity by manipulating brain wave states. Instead of constantly operating in beta, shift to alpha for creativity, theta for deep insight, and gamma for breakthrough. Find "flow ...

Activating two somatostatin receptors enhances amyloid beta breakdown and improves memory in models of Alzheimer’s disease.

Bursts of brain rhythms with 'beta' frequencies control where and when neurons in the cortex process sensory information and plan responses. Studying these bursts would improve understanding of ...

(By Randy Lane) What if you had a higher volume of creative ideas, your critical thinking was sharper, or your attention more focused? You would be a more innovative talent and a more dynamic and ...

A study published Wednesday in Nature Neuroscience sheds light into how amyloid-beta and tau proteins impact brain activity and contribute to cognitive decline. Amyloid-beta and tau proteins have been ...

A new study published in the journal Psychophysiology provides evidence that the specific way a person breathes during ...

Scientists at the Carney Institute for Brain Science have discovered specific patterns of electrical signals in the brain that may help forecast whether a person will go on to develop Alzheimer’s ...

Lucid dreaming occurs when a person becomes aware they are dreaming, often gaining the ability to control the dream’s events. For instance, they might fly, walk through walls, or confront fears, ...

Data from a 2018 study by the authors shows bursts of brain wave power (warmer colors) at gamma (higher) and beta (lower) frequencies during a working memory task. When beta bursts appear, there are ...
