NWG25: Moein Esghaei about Details in Phase Coupling

Published: 10.05.2025

The brain produces oscillations that can be read out by an EEG. But those oscillations are more tricky, than they seem. For example there is a coupling between theta and gamma waves – in different versions. Moein Esghaei of Deutsches Primatenzentrum DPZ shows us some details.

EEG

An electroencephalogram, or EEG for short, is a recording of the brain's electrical activity (brain waves). Brain waves are measured on the surface of the head or using electrodes implanted in the brain itself. The time resolution is in the millisecond range, but the spatial resolution is very poor. The discoverer of electrical brain waves and EEG is the neurologist Hans Berger (1873−1941) from Jena.
