Elevated dementia risks among older adults were associated with weaker and more fragmented circadian rest-activity rhythms ...

New research shows that rhythmic brain activity is key to temporarily maintaining important information in memory. Researchers found brain rhythms -- or patterns of neuronal activity -- organize the ...

A new study suggests that disruptions in sleep and daily activity timing may be linked to a higher risk of dementia in older ...

In the 17 th century, the Dutch scientist Christiaan Huygens hanged two of his recently invented pendulum clocks on a wooden beam and observed that as time passed, the clocks aligned their beats. He ...

And those who experienced peak activity later in the afternoon — from 2:15 p.m. onward — had a 45% higher risk of dementia ...

It has long been known that oscillatory neural activity is a key factor for attentional selection in the mammalian brain. Scientists have now investigated how this works. They found that coupling ...

Rhythmic electrical activity in the retina (known as pathological oscillations) has been observed in several eye diseases, including congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB) and retinitis ...

New research shows that rhythmic brain activity is key to temporarily maintaining important information in memory. Researchers at the Del Monte Institute for Neuroscience at the University of ...
