Impulsiveness as a timing disturbance: neurocognitive abnormalities in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder

This paper, published in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society Biological Sciences Journal sites impulsiveness as a timing disturbance.

20 Milleseconds - Can your child score this low?

Dan Feldman, from the UC Berkley,  recently discovered that rats brains synchronize for optimal learning at about 20 milliseconds.  Early in my IM career, I discovered that when students work the ms average down to about 20 milliseconds (ms), magic occurs.  Not real magic of course, just mental processing becomes extremely efficient, high quality, in the elite range on the IM charts and most of all, it feels great! People love to get into the teens in IM.

Neurons that "sing with the choir" help quiet brain noise.

IM seems to be impacting in the brain in a couple of different ways. One is that the neuronal tracts that fire in IM may be increasing in mylination, speeding up the signal. Another way is these tracks may be synchronizing together.   Jernigan from the UC San Diego spoke at the TDLC All Hands meeting this past February (2009) about these two processes.

Parts of the right hemisphere of the brain implicated in Dyslexia

Parts of the right hemisphere of the brains of people with dyslexia have been shown to differ from those of normal readers. Researchers writing in the open access journal note that in all cases, differences could be seen in either the right cerebellar declive or the right lentiform nucleus.

IM is considered a cerebellar exercise by many professionals. If the right cerebellar declive is exercised during IM, maybe this is a link to the large improvement in reading often seen through IM.
