Spiral Brain Waves Linked to Cognitive Processing
Researchers have discovered that interacting spiral wave patterns underlie complex brain dynamics and are related to cognitive processing. The study used fMRI data to identify these patterns and found that they propagate across the cortex in a hierarchical manner. The findings suggest that these patterns may play a role in the organization of resting-state networks and could provide insight into the neural basis of cognition. The data and code used in the study are publicly available.
