The Mathematical Mind Offers Neuroscientists a Master Class in Concentration
Briefly

Our study revealed that individuals with extensive experience in mathematics experience a distinctive state of deep concentration when engaging with complex mathematical challenges.
The parietal regions of the brain are activated during mathematical problem-solving, supporting our ability to process space, time, and numerical information.
Past neuroscientific studies focused on short problem-solving intervals; our research addresses longer, more complex challenges relevant to mathematicians.
Recognizing the neural mechanisms of concentration could lead to a broader understanding of how focus and cognitive skills are developed.
