Researchers from UC San Francisco have revealed a particular pattern of brain waves that hold the ability to let go of old, unnecessary learned associations to make way for new updates. The research shows that a particular behavior can be dependent on the specific synchronization of high-frequency brain waves in different parts of the brain, and may pave the way for developing interruptions for certain psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia. Researchers emphasize that a detailed understanding of normal gamma wave patterns and what happens when they are disturbed could eventually help the patients who really need it.
