Here you’ll find posts related to EEG, which stands for Electroencephalography, an electrophysiological monitoring method to record the electrical activity of the brain.
As we have already discussed in a previous blog on Brain Consciousness and Complexity, algorithmic complexity is an intrinsic property of the brain dynamics, and be estimated through the Lempel-Ziv-Welch algorithm from the EEG (electroencephalogram) signals (Figure 1). In this…
Someone knew someone who almost died. And when that happened, this person was able to see their own body, from above, lying in that bed. Inert. This, a classical out-of-body experience (Figure 1A), refers to the sensation that a person’s…
Transcranial current stimulation (tCS) seems to be a powerful tool to make the link between brain function and disease. This has been demonstrated in current research. However, we have yet to fully understand the underlying neurobiological mechanisms of tCS. The…
Heart monitoring is becoming increasingly popular with the availability of health monitoring wristbands. Most of these units have built-in microprocessors that analyze the recorded signals (*1) to determine the heart rate – the frequency of the cardiac cycle (beats per…
