About Me
Hey there, my name is Mike Myers, and I'm a 1st year student at UCSB studying Chemical Engineering. I'm currently taking Writing 2E under direction of Professor Stansell which is the reason I have started writing on Wikipedia.

Paraphrasing
Human brain activity can be measured by studying the different waves that the brain emits using an electroencephalograph. An awake and unstimulated brain emits mostly alpha waves while an alert brain emits beta waves which are roughly twice as fast. During sleep the brain switches modes and emits mostly theta waves and delta waves. As sleep deepens, the waves decrease in speed...(howstuffworks.com article on sleep)
