The Slope of the Power Spectrum: An important metric in EEG
The slope that represents the decay of the EEG power spectrum carries important information about the signal that can eliminate many of the inconsistencies of […]
Fundamentals of Biological Intelligence
What are the fundamental principles of biological intelligence. Here is a theory that brings together various foundational theories into an integrated framework, one called practopoiesis […]
Challenges of Methodological Variability in EEG
Methodological variability is a challenge in the EEG field at various levels. This video provides a view of these challenges in four major areas along […]
How Intelligent Are Neurons?
If individual neurons were as intelligent as little minions, how would we know? The experimental paradigms today assume they are not, what should we change […]
Astrocytes in Charge
Over the last decade or so it has been found that astrocytes exert control over synapse formation, synaptic transmission, blood flow and host of other […]
Effect of EEG Reference Choice on Outcomes
In EEG, voltages recorded at each electrode are computed with reference to another electrode. The choice of this electrode reference impacts a number of EEG measures. […]
Individual Variability in Adolescent Brain and Behavior
Little is known about the developmental trajectory of the brain through adolescence but a few studies suggest there is large inter-person variability and differences that […]
Beyond the Brain: Embodied Cognition
The feedback loops between brain and body are profound, leading to the possibility that cognition is not simply a function of the brain alone but […]
Down a Rabbit Hole? A History of EEG Analysis
The analysis of the EEG signal in terms of frequency bands has its origins in the technical workarounds of the 1930s when there were no […]
