====== Neurophysiology ====== Neurophysiology (from Greek νεῦρον, neuron, "nerve"; φύσις, physis, "nature, origin"; and -λογία, -logia, "knowledge") is a branch of physiology and [[neuroscience]] that is concerned with the study of the functioning of the nervous system. The primary tools of basic neurophysiological research include electrophysiological recordings, such as patch clamp, voltage clamp, extracellular single-unit recording and recording of local field potentials, as well as some of the methods of calcium imaging, optogenetics, and molecular biology. Neurophysiology is related to [[electrophysiology]], neurobiology, psychology, neurology, clinical neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, cognitive science, biophysics, mathematical biology, and other sciences concerning the brain. ===== Clinical Neurophysiology ===== see [[Clinical Neurophysiology]]. ===== Cerebral physiology ===== see [[Cerebral physiology]]. ====Journals==== see Journal of Neurophysiology http://jn.physiology.org/ see Clinical Neurophysiology http://www.journals.elsevier.com/clinical-neurophysiology Neurophysiology http://www.springer.com/biomed/neuroscience/journal/11062 ====Societies==== American Clinical Neurophysiology Society
