Study shows alpha brain wave frequency shapes how the brain integrates touch and vision to create the feeling that your body ...

A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Communications, reveals how rhythmic brain waves known as alpha ...

A new study reveals that alpha brain waves help the brain decide what belongs to your body. Faster rhythms allow the brain to match sight and touch more precisely, strengthening the feeling that a ...

Each year, thousands of stroke survivors are left with hemianopia, a condition that causes loss of half of their visual field (the “vertical midline”). Hemianopia severely affects daily activities ...

Being able to noninvasively stimulate the deep brain without stimulating shallow regions is a key goal of non-invasive neurostimulation. A study published in Communications Biology by Carnegie Mellon ...

Brain-to-brain verbal communication in humans was first accomplished in 2014 when brain-computer interfaces helped transmit a message from India to France. Since then, some progress has been made on ...

Novel magnetic nanodiscs could provide a much less invasive way of stimulating parts of the brain, paving the way for stimulation therapies without implants or genetic modification, researchers report ...
