Using a wearable design of magnetoencephalography (MEG) scanner, the team were able to measure high frequency brain waves (known as gamma waves) that are generated in brain circuits that rely on both ...

New research has given the clearest ever picture of young children's developing brains, using a wearable brain scanner to map electrical brain activity. The work opens up new possibilities for ...

The wearable brain scanner is based on quantum technology, and uses LEGO-brick-sized sensors -- called optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) -- which are incorporated into a lightweight helmet to ...

A new study has shown how aspects of brain function change with age, revealing that excitatory processes in the brain decrease, while inhibitory processes increase as children get older. The findings ...
