But now scientists can use new technologies to try to isolate the specific brain areas and circuits that help enable concentration.
#Would it be with similar frequency bands and a similar organization of neighboring brain areas?##In addition to Tamaki Sasaki and Watanabe other authors on the paper contributed from Boston University MGH National Taiwan University and Arizona State university.
Using brain imaging techniques, the scientists measured levels and locations of dopamine receptors in brain areas of interest in each participant before and after training.
the first connections between upper brain areas are snapping into place; and links have just been forged between the inner ear and cortex.
patientsscans lit up in brain areas corresponding to where in the body they ached. 44: Number of Americans who die every day from overdosing on prescription painkillers,
The researchers have identified also a part of the prefrontal cortex--the large brain area located immediately behind the forehead that is associated with complex cognitive activities--that appears to evaluate such causal uncertainty
Cerebrovascular disease often entails complex tangles of vessels in sensitive brain areas. hese children had unique anatomy with deep vessels that were very tricky to operate on,
our models allow for a detailed analysis of the brain areas involved in speech processes and their interaction, outline Christian Herff und Dominic Heger,
"what is different is used the brain area: posterior parietal cortex versus the premotor,"he said. Krishna Shenoy, a professor of electrical engineering who studies neural prostheses at Stanford,
"It is important to investigate many brain areas for potential use in prostheses, as different areas may well have different advantages.""
Andersen says. hat we have here is a unique window into the workings of a complex high-level brain area,
#Imaging Technique Provides Color Coded Map Showing Cancerous Brain areas New imaging technique could make brain tumor removal safer and more effective,
The scientists were able to conclude from the various active brain areas which of the three categories (long-known, recently heard,
loss of neurons, reduced metabolism and deposition of amyloid protein in the affected brain areas. They found that the brain area that had been identified as the seat of long-term musical memory does in fact lose fewer neurons than the rest of the brain.
Also, metabolism in this area does not decline as much. The extent of amyloid deposits is similar to that in other areas of the brain
The brain areas responsible for long-term musical memory are affected therefore often least by neuron loss and typical metabolic disorders in Alzheimer patients.
"Andersen and his colleagues are the first to attempt to harness this brain area to simulate touch in people.
The researchers paid special attention to the hippocampus because it is one of the first brain areas affected by Alzheimer's.
Andersen says. hat we have here is a unique window into the workings of a complex high-level brain area as we work collaboratively with our subject to perfect his skill in controlling external devices.?
while sentence comprehension is handled by a complex network of brain areas. his provides an important change in our understanding of language comprehension in the brain,
