Forskare vid Lunds universitet har utvecklat en teknik för att mäta elektriska signaler från 128 hjärnområden samtidigt hos vakna råttor. Den har de sedan använt för att mäta vad som händer med nervcellerna när råttorna får psykedeliska droger. Resultaten visar på en oväntad och samtidig synkronisering bland nervcellerna i flera områden i hjärnan. Idén om att elektriska svängningar, oscillationer,
