In a real brain, neurons
receive electrical pulses from synapses until a sufficient voltage builds up across their membrane.
Not exact matches
A magnetic coil surrounds the tube and
receives a short - lived
electrical pulse to create a pressure within the tube that ejects a droplet of liquid metal through the orifice.
Both act as switches that can either transmit or not transmit
electrical pulses, depending on signals they
receive.
This
electrical pulse, combined with the signal
received from other neurons, acts to stimulate the synapses.
The weight loss and adverse events of 157 patients who
received the active Maestro device (the experimental group) were compared to 76 patients in the control group who
received a Maestro
electrical pulse generator that was not activated.
As the team hypothesized, when the patient was close to
receiving the reward, a receiver detected this
electrical pulse, or biomarker, in his brain.
