John Lisman (neuroscientist)

John Lisman was a renowned neuroscientist known for his research on how the brain encodes and processes information, particularly in relation to memory and consciousness. He studied the electrical activity of neurons, focusing on patterns like brain waves, to understand how different regions of the brain communicate and synchronize during thinking and learning. His work contributed to the understanding of the cellular and molecular basis of memory formation and neural oscillations, helping to reveal the complex mechanisms underlying human cognition.
