Cerebral cortex rhythms such as alpha, beta, gamma, theta and delta waves play an important role in a variety of processes, from perception and memory to emotional state and mental activity. But it’s still not entirely clear how exactly they interact with each other. Scientists from SSU proposed the concept of network interactions of rhythms, according to which the brain works not only with individual rhythms, but also with their coordination as a complex network.
Using electrocorticogram signals from mice, scientists analyzed the coordination of brain rhythms before and after sleep deprivation and also examined how different parts of the brain interact with each other. These results could be an important step in the development of methods for diagnosing sleep disorders and treating diseases associated with disruption of the central nervous system.
