Sentences with phrase «slow waves between»

The researchers believe the TRN may help the brain consolidate new memories by coordinating slow waves between different parts of the brain, allowing them to share information more easily.

Not exact matches

It is more likely that one would find changes in the phase relations between slow waves and intracellular potentials.

The two frequencies alternated every 40 seconds, reminding Laurent of the regular oscillations between high - frequency REM and slow - wave sleep found in mammals and birds.

Inspired by a 2012 paper that proposed a correlation between such hotspots and the velocity of seismic waves moving through Earth's interior, UC Santa Barbara geochemist Matthew Jackson teamed with the authors of the original paper — Thorsten Becker of the University of Texas at Austin and Jasper Konter of the University of Hawaii — to show that only the hottest hotspots with the slowest wave velocity draw from the primitive reservoir formed early in the planet's history.

The findings suggest a link between the slowing of movement and greater beta wave activity seen in people with Parkinson's.

Slow - wave sleep (SWS) is characterized by synchronized neural activity alternating between active upstates and quiet downstates.

Green and Arduini described an inverse relationship between hippocampal and cortical activity patterns, with hippocampal rhythmicity occurring alongside desynchronized activity in the cortex, whereas an irregular hippocampal activity pattern was correlated with the appearance of large slow waves in the cortical EEG.

There is also a distinction between sleep states: REM (dreaming) sleep is associated with theta; slow - wave sleep is associated with LIA.

Nearly half of the day's secretion of HGH occurs during deep, slow - wave sleep with the biggest burst coming between 11:30 pm and midnight.
