🧠 Discovering the Brain's Secret to Detecting Patterns Automatically A fascinating study recently published in Nature reveals how our brains detect patterns in everyday experiences without us even realizing it. Researchers have identified specific neurons in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex—areas critical for memory and navigation—that can integrate 'what' happens and 'when' it happens to recognize patterns in real-time. 🔍 Study Insights: ◾ Neurons can predict upcoming events by understanding the sequence of past events, enhancing our ability to navigate through daily life efficiently. ◾ This pattern recognition occurs without conscious awareness, highlighting the brain's complex underlying processes that operate beneath our conscious experience. The study involved participants with electrodes implanted for medical reasons, providing a unique glimpse into the neuronal activity underlying cognitive processes. 💡 Why It Matters: Understanding these mechanisms opens new avenues for developing therapies to enhance memory and cognitive function, particularly in neurological conditions. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ee_T9QDY #Neuroscience #CognitiveScience #HealthcareInnovation #BrainResearch

It's common knowledge that our brains- specifically, our brain cells—store memories. However, a team of scientists has discovered that cells from other parts of the body also perform a memory function, opening new pathways for understanding how memory works and creating the potential to enhance learning and treat memory-related afflictions. A breakthrough study from New York University reveals that cells from the kidney and nerve tissue can form memories, similar to brain cells. The researchers add that the findings not only offer new ways to study memory but also point to potential health-related gains.

Two is better than one! We have developed a hybrid EEG+fNIRS system that integrates an EEG electrode with fNIRS emitters/detectors into a single pod. Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a non-invasive brain imaging technique that utilizes light to measure brain activity by observing changes in blood oxygenation. Leveraging fNIRS along with EEG empowers researchers with colocalized measurements of neural activity and blood flow. This combination significantly enhances research in neurovascular coupling, providing valuable insights into the interplay between neural activity and vascular functions, enabling a more comprehensive view of brain activity. Our goal is to empower the neuroscience community with the most effective tools, therefore contributing to a deeper understanding of neural functioning. We hope this system will support researchers in their quest to uncover new knowledge about the brain 🧠 #EEG #fNIRS #Neurotech #NeurovascularCoupling #Neuroscience

A new computer simulation developed by scientists at the University of Surrey is helping unravel the complexities of neuron growth in the brain, with promising implications for neurodegenerative disease research. The model, built with BioDynaMo software, simulates neuron development in the hippocampus, a region critical to memory retention. Dr. Roman Bauer, who co-developed the simulation, explains, “We’re getting closer to understanding how neurons grow and communicate, which could lead to better treatments for diseases like Alzheimer’s.” This simulation leverages Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) to closely mirror real neuron growth patterns, making it an exciting tool for future research in brain development and potential therapeutic advancements. https://lnkd.in/em-WJd-h #Neuroscience #NeuronGrowth #Neurodegeneration #MentalHealthResearch #Alzheimers #BrainScience #InnovationInHealthcare #MentalHealthProfessionals
