    Interesting! Also, one of the comments on the article points that:

    This is a nice informative article, but two clocks is really just the beginning. There is good evidence that the cerebellum tracks time on the fraction-of-a-second level, the basal ganglia on the level of seconds, and the hippocampus and cortex on the minute-plus level.

    That's just mind blowing.

      I think the brain is still so complex to us that we aren't able to effectively make any confirmations yet. Most of this stuff is assumptions and educated guessing.

        My guess is that we probably won't be the ones to fully comprehend the human brain first. I would say that once we start having computers that have artificial intelligence smarter than us they will be the ones to fully map out the human brain and give us a more concise understanding.
