Neurons that fire in synchrony, have a greater impact on neuroplasticity (learning) than those neurons firing alone. This technical lecture about Neural Synchrony and Selective Attention tells us that by aligning the firing of neurons up in time, you get a big bang for your buck in terms of efficient processing in the brain.
Great support for improving the timing accuracy of your brain to increase your learning efficiency.
Towards the end of his lecture, Professor Desinome discusses how neural synchrony looks to be a very foundational part of communication between brain regions, efficient connectivity between brain regions. Many learning challenges, Dyslexia, Autism, ADHD, are being identified as connectivity disorders. Watch this Boston University's Center for Neuroscience Video here.
