We had collaborated in the early 1970s, comparing single unit activity in cat lateral geniculate nucleus with the ability of humans to detect the appearances and disappearances of elements in random dot patterns (Phillips and Singer 1974; Singer and Phillips 1974).
Since then we had not met for some years and the neurophysiologist asked what the psychologist's current interests were.

 John C. Eccles Biography | World of Biology
John Carew Eccles was a neurophysiologist whose research explained how nerve cells communicate with one another.
He demonstrated that when a nerve cell is stimulated it releases a chemical that binds to the membrane of neighboring cells and activates them in turn.
He and other neurophysiologists believed that the transmission of electrical impulses was responsible for neural inhibition.

 God and the Temporal Lobes of the Brain
A neurophysiologist born in India, Ramachandran feels that many of the findings of modern neurophysiology can be interpreted as helping to teach the ancient Hindu lesson of "maya," or illusion.
What if a neurophysiologist, who had studied this syndrome for many years, and was very familiar with it were to have a stroke that produced the same brain damage.
The final piece of the physiology of the self exhibited by Ramachandran was one that he had to preface with a disavowal of the headline given it by press reports.

 Neurophysiology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Surgical Neurophysiologists perform intraoperative neuromonitoring during surgeries in which there is a high risk of damage to the nervous system.
Such neurophysiologists should have basic training in neuroscience, electrophysiology, and anatomy.
However, there is no required certification for performing surgical neurophysiology.

 UC Davis News & Information :: Study Shows How Animals Sense When Food Lacks Amino Acids
UC Davis neurophysiologist Dorothy Gietzen studied the brain mechanism in rats that allows them to respond to nutritional stress.
The findings by neurophysiologist Dorothy Gietzen and colleagues at UC Davis' School of Veterinary Medicine have implications for human health, particularly epilepsy, since some forms of epilepsy are influenced by amino acid deficiencies.
That is because amino acids are the chemical units that the body uses to construct proteins for growth and development.

 Why Nerve Cells Work Faster Than The Theory Allows
With accuracy unknown until now, researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization and the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience in Göttingen together with the neurophysiologist Maxim Volgushev from the Ruhr-Universität Bochum have analyzed, by which rules, the nerve cells in the cerebral cortex decide to send out impulses.
The threshold and the speed with which the action potential originates vary from cell to cell - for any individual cell however, these parameters are specified for the most part by the characteristics of its sodium channels.
An interdisciplinary team of physicists and neurophysiologists from the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization in Göttingen and the Ruhr-Universität Bochum has now examined more closely the speed and threshold of action potentials in nerve cells of the cerebral cortex of the mammal brain.

 Introduction
Clinical Neurophysiology is a medical field whose object is the study of the electrical activity generated (directly or indirectly) by the nervous system.
In practice, clinical neurophysiologists are in charge of electroencephalography (EEG), electromyography (EMG), evoked potentials, sleep recordings and other analogous diagnostic tests.
If we compare the ability of a clinical neurophysiologist to treat a text, a sound or an image with his or her ability to manipulate neurophysiological signals, it is evident that there exists a wide gap.

 ENTELEKY-THE HOLOGRAPHIC UNIVERSE
It is based on the work of two respected researchers: University of London quantum physicist David Brohm and Karl Pibram, a neurophysiologist at Stanford University, who arrived at the same conclusion independently.
Put another way, there is evidence to suggest that our world and everything in it--from snowflakes to maple trees to falling stars and spinning electrons--are also only ghostly images, projections from a level of reality so beyond our own it is literally beyond both space and time.
The main architects of this astonishing idea are two of the world's most eminent thinkers: University of London physicist David Bohm, a protege of Einstein's and one of the world's most respected quantum physicists; and Karl Pribram, a neurophysiologist at Stanford University and author of the classic neuropsychological textbook Languages of the Brain.

 EPTA
These are recordings of electrical signals produced naturally by your brain following repeated stimulation of the eyes, ears or arms and legs.
A neurophysiologist starts by making measurements of your head, and after gently rubbing over the marks, attaches small metal discs using a sticky paste.
It is not known whether this has ever happened, but if you suffer from epilepsy you should let the doctor or neurophysiologist know at the start of your test.

The following year, after becoming a junior fellow, Eccles became a research assistant to the world's leading neurophysiologist, Charles Scott Sherrington, who would win the Nobel Prize in 1932.
Although Sherrington was then nearly 70 years old, Eccles collaborated with him on some of his most important research.
The research that Eccles had begun in Sherrington's laboratory continued as Eccles became increasingly interested in explaining the process that underlies inhibition.
