Credit: Brain Simulation Section, BIH, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin For the first time, researchers led by Professor Dr. Petra Ritter’s team have succeeded in explaining the propagation of traveling waves of activity in the human brain using a computer simulation. Previous studies indicate that these waves are important for various cognitive functions such as memory. Ritter is Johanna Quandt Professor at the Berlin Institute of Health at Charité (BIH) leading the research group for brain simulation. She is also Head of the Section Brain Simulation at the Read More
