When it comes to monitoring electrical activity in the brain, patients typically have to lie very still inside a large magnetoencephalography (MEG) machine. That could be about to change, though, as ...

The human brain undergoes significant functional and structural changes during the first decades of life, as the fundamental building blocks of human cognition are established. However, relatively ...

Normally when someone needs their brain scanned, they end up using a traditional fixed magnetoencephalography (MEG) machine that limits movement. Researchers at the Sir Peter Mansfield Imaging Centre, ...

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) enables allows direct imaging of brain activity by measuring magnetic fields generated at the scalp by neural currents. MEG is currently performed using an array of ...

A simple bike helmet may be the answer for researchers looking to study the brains of fidgety kids. With a few extra holes drilled in the top and a pile of chunky cables ballooning outward, the common ...
