Washington, Mar 24: Scientists may soon be able to find a way to prevent common blunders, such as spilling a cup of coffee or failing to notice a red light, thanks to a new research, which has shown that the human brain is capable of signalling when an error is about to happen.
A research team, led by a researcher at the University of California, Davis, in collaboration with the Donders Institute in the Netherlands, has found a distinct electric signature in the brain, which predicts when an error is about to be made.
