Cracking the Code of Life's Random Rhythms: A Universal Framework for Understanding Oscillations
An international team of researchers has developed a universal framework for understanding and comparing stochastic oscillations, which are random rhythms found in various phenomena such as brain waves and heartbeats. By using complex numbers to describe the timing and variability of oscillators, the team's approach allows for better analysis and manipulation of these oscillations, potentially leading to advancements in fields like neural science and cardiac science. The framework provides a new perspective on stochastic oscillators and offers a more precise and comprehensive understanding of their underlying mechanisms.
