Sentences with phrase «neural signals change»

Future studies investigating how neural signals change in response to microstimulation (and how these changes vary with the precise targeting of the stimulating electrode) will be critical for increasing our understanding, not only of the physiological signatures of microstimulation, but also the microcircuit dynamics underlying memory.

A major limitation of these devices is that the decoder requires frequent calibration — which is needed to accurately estimate an individual's movement intention — because neural signals change over time.

Not exact matches

They could discern this by neural signals emitted by the babies that showed they recognized the pitch and vowel changes in the fake word.

«The results are novel, as this sensitive and comprehensive testing has revealed how prenatal and early postnatal immune activation may regulate core behavioral signs associated with ASD and certain other developmental disorders through changes in signal flow between different structural components of behavior - driving neural circuits,» said Bolshakov.

At Princeton, neurobiologist Lisa Boulanger — one of Shatz's former postdocs, who now has her own lab — began investigating whether changes in MHCI levels could cause neural signaling problems mimicking autism in mice.

As well as offering a way to create souped - up organisms, changing neural connectivity could one day allow us to treat brain damage in people by rerouting signals around damaged neurons.

Neural signals are transmitted within neurons by changing calcium concentrations, so the researchers used this technique to measure the amount of calcium contained within the Purkinje cells in real time.

Neural signal patterns can change when the electrodes move even slightly; a neuron whose signal was not previously detected can end up joining the recorded ensemble while another might become excluded.

Because of the changes in neural signals over time, the resting firing patterns of neurons in the motor cortex might have changed since the last pause.

Poon believes this discovery will spawn a new generation of programmable microimplants — sensors to monitor vital functions deep inside the body; electrostimulators to change neural signals in the brain; and drug delivery systems to apply medicines directly to affected areas.

Babies who had heard the recordings showed the neural signal for recognizing vowel and pitch changes in the pseudoword, and the signal was strongest for the infants whose mothers played the recording most often.

New information about how light energy is changed into neural signals shows how an individual photoreceptor cell of the eye registers the absorption of a single photon, or quantum of light

She received her Ph.D. from the NYU School of Medicine and her graduate work focused on protein synthesis signaling and subsequent proteomic changes underlying ameliorative neural stimuli.

MEG signals, collected while participants viewed single objects, were source - localised and RSA was used to test how object information is represented by dynamically changing patterns of neural oscillations.
