... Starting in the 1930s, Clinton Woolsey, Philip Bard, and others began to discover motor and sensory “maps” in the brain. In the 1970s and 1980s, we learned that multiple maps exist in each sensory modality. We now know there are very localized areas in the brain, such as the middle temporal area whi ...

Metastability in the brain

In the field of computational neuroscience, the theory of metastability refers to the human brain’s ability to integrate several functional parts and to produce neural oscillations in a cooperative and coordinated manner, providing the basis for conscious activity.Metastability, a state in which signals (such as oscillatory waves) fall outside their natural equilibrium state but persist for an extended period of time, is a principle that describes the brain’s ability to make sense out of seemingly random environmental cues. In the past 25 years, interest in metastability and the underlying framework of nonlinear dynamics has been fueled by advancements in the methods by which computers model brain activity.
