It's a much slower changing process. but there are these like canonical kind of oscillations and waves, like gamma waves, beta waves, like when you sleep, that can be detected, because there's sort of a synchronized kind of global effect of the brain that you can detect.

like why diffusion physics at some point dominates when you're further away from the source you know it it's just a charged medium um so similar to how when you have electromagnetic waves propagating in atmosphere or in in a charged medium like a plasma there's this weird shielding that happens that actually um further attenuates the signal um as you move away from it so yeah you see like if you do a really really deep dive on

kind of the signal attenuation over distance you start to see kind of one over r square in the beginning and then exponential drop off and that's the knee at which you know you go from electromagnet magnetism dominating to diffusion physics dominating

Correct. Yeah. So once you penetrate the brain, you know, you're in the arena, so to speak. And there's a lot of neurons.

Also, most of them are silent. They don't really do much. Or their activities are, you have to hit it with just the right set of stimulus. So they're usually quiet. They're usually very quiet. There's, I mean, similar to dark energy and dark matter, there's dark neurons. What are they all doing?

When you place these electrode, again, like within this hundred micron volume, you have 40 or so neurons. Like, why do you not see 40 neurons? Why do you see only a handful? What is happening there?
