Lumbar central pattern generators (CPGs) control the basic rhythm and coordinate muscle activation underlying hindlimb locomotion in quadrupedal mammals. The existence and function of CPGs in humans ...

(Medical Xpress)—To understand how the brain recognizes speech, appreciates music and performs other higher-level functions, it is necessary to understand how neural systems process temporal ...

Circadian rhythms are cycles in the body that occur roughly across 24 hours. In humans, circadian rhythms cause physical and mental changes in the body, including feelings of wakefulness and sleep.

Your circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock. Light, sleep patterns, hormones, meals, and temperature can all influence your circadian rhythm, which in turn can influence your overall health.
