Musicians' brains keep time--With one another: Scientific American Blog - 0 views

  • The researchers found that the guitarists' brain waves were aligned most during three pivotal times: when they were syncing up with a metronome, when they began playing the piece and at points during the composition that demanded the most synchrony.
  • The synchrony was most prominent in the frontal and central parts of the brain that regulate motor function. "Whenever synchrony of behavior was high, synchrony of brain waves were also high,"
  • While brain synchrony during a duet seems like a given, it's a mystery how it happens, says Lindenberger, a psychologist. "One could speculate that this may be related to mirror neurons, the capacity of primates and humans to imagine the action of the other person while performing actions yourself," he says. "The mirror neuron system could be active during synchronized guitar playing."

Breakthrough Stanford Research: Hypnotic Trance Changes Brain Activity - 0 views

  •  
    A groundbreaking Stanford Study lead by Dr. David Spiegel has revealed what hypnotists have long known about brain activity whilst under a hypnotic trance. That is: some parts of the brain function differently under hypnosis than during normal consciousness. In essence, hypnosis indeed alters brain patterns and activity. These findings might help explain the intense absorption, lack of self-consciousness and suggestibility that characterize the hypnotic state. Would you like to discover more about Dr. David Spiegel hypnosis research findings and how you can use hypnosis to control pain and increase someone's self-esteem?

The power of one - neuron | Brain Health Hacks - 2 views

  • The researchers found that by inducing repetitive high frequency firing of a single neuron they could switch the brain state from slow-wave sleep, to rapid-eye movement sleep.
  • Therefore, judging by these three high profile journal papers, a single neuron can make a difference - one neuron firing can change your sleep state, motor movement, or induce a behavior.
