«We found more changes in
brain electrical activity in male subjects, than in females, which was a surprise, as we expected it would be the other way around.
Patterns
of Brain Electrical Activity in Infants of Depressed Mothers who Breastfeed and Bottle Feed: The Mediating Role of Infant Temperament.
The $ 299 device
measures brain electrical activity via 16 scalp sensors, which the company claims allow recognition of basic emotions and up to 30 specific thoughts, such as «lift this object,» «fire death ray,» or «fly forward.»
The team examined the brainwave patterns of 36 infants (17 in the first experiment and 19 in the second) using electroencephalography (EEG), which measures patterns of
brain electrical activity via electrodes in a skull cap worn by the participants.
This was followed by three minute scalp recordings of temporal
lobe brain electrical activity, obtained as part of a standard baseline brain assessment using High - resolution, relational, resonance - based electroencephalic mirroring (HIRREM).
To investigate the mechanisms underlying seizures, Klaus Lehnertz, a physicist at the University of Bonn's Clinic of Epileptology, and his colleagues
studied brain electrical activity (EEG) measurements taken from 16 epileptic patients with electrodes implanted in their brains.

For example, flexible electronics could gather vital medical data such as the stiffness of arteries, which can help predict heart attacks, and
brain electrical activity, which can signal oncoming epileptic seizures.
Scientists built miniature devices to measure avian head movement,
brain electrical activity and GPS location, and they attached them — almost like hats and backpacks — to great frigatebirds of the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador.
Just three to five minutes spent looking at views dominated by trees, flowers or water can begin to reduce anger, anxiety and pain and to induce relaxation, according to various studies of healthy people that measured physiological changes in blood pressure, muscle tension, or heart and
brain electrical activity.
So, I left my clinical practice and went to a research lab in Tuebingen, Germany, to investigate how
the brain electrical activity produces complex behavior.
I used to «read» recordings of
the brain electrical activity (electroencephalograms) of children with ADHD, Autism, and Epilepsy.
Dr. Lukas» multidisciplinary staff includes pharmacologists, clinical and research psychologists, psychiatrists, and imaging technologists who are expert at using many tools such as magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy (MRI / MRS), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI),
brain electrical activity (EEG), pharmacokinetic and physiological measurements, ecological assessments of drug use, and subjective assessments of mood and cue - induced cravings.
But there are differences in
the brain electrical activity between the two types.
, The Effects of Lavender Oil Inhalation on Emotional States, Autonomic Nervous System, and
Brain Electrical Activity, 2012
Theobromine is a central nervous system stimulant that raises blood pressure, heart rate, and
brain electrical activity.
