Abstract

We begin this chapter by talking about the knowledge needed to understand a dying brain as it is dying. We talk about a few different branches of knowledge before settling on oscillopathies and make our case for why we think it is the most fundamental and the most actionable part of understanding who and what we are. Finally, we poll several experts in the field for their views on oscillopathies.
