Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease that attacks the nerves in the brain, making it difficult for the brain to send signals to the rest of the body. MS symptoms are extremely variable, and can include difficulty walking, fatigue, pain, and cognitive issues such as problems with concentration, memory and word-finding.

The human brain is made up of neural circuits that are thought to underlie all brain function.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by difficulties with communication, social deficits as well as repetitive behaviors and interests.

The primary motor cortex in the brain is responsible for voluntary movement. It has also been proposed to be one of the sites for motor memory formation and storage.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a terminal disease that paralyzes people because the brain is no longer able to communicate with the muscles that we are typically able to move at will.

EEG is a non-invasive, inexpensive, and efficient tool for measuring electrical signals in the brain.
