New research shows that the brain’s ability to detect subtle visual changes—like spotting an anomaly on a security monitor—depends on theta-frequency brain waves (3–6 Hz) that rhythmically sweep ...
Imagine hammering a nail into a wall: Your dominant hand swings the hammer while the other holds the nail steady. In a new theory, Cornell psychology scholars propose that everyday tasks like this are ...

Like radar, a brain wave sweeps a cortical region to read out information held in working memory
Imagine you are a security guard in one of those casino heist movies where your ability to recognize an emerging crime will ...
Brainwaves scan the cerebral cortex like a radar system to bring attention to visual anomalies, according to new MIT research ...
Gamma band oscillations arise in neuronal networks of interconnected GABAergic interneurons and excitatory pyramidal cells. A previous study found a correlation between visual gamma peak frequency, as ...
Twice a day, at dawn and dusk, we experience gradual but very high amplitude changes in background light intensity (irradiance). Although we perceive the associated change in environmental brightness, ...
