The function of neural circuits and networks can be controlled, in part, by modulating the
synchrony of their components' activities. Network hypersynchrony and altered oscillatory …

Highlights•We reviewed the evidence on the role alpha oscillations might play in
attention.•There is an abundance of support for alpha power playing a functional inhibitory …

Retaining information in working memory is a demanding process that relies on cognitive
control to protect memoranda-specific persistent activity from interference,. However, how …

Working memory is thought to result from sustained neuron spiking. However, computational
models suggest complex dynamics with discrete oscillatory bursts. We analyzed local field …

Computational modeling and human studies suggest that transcranial alternating current
stimulation (tACS) modulates alpha oscillations by entrainment. Yet, a direct examination of …

To understand dynamic cognitive processes, the high time resolution of EEG/MEG is
invaluable. EEG/MEG signals can play an important role in providing measures of functional …

Working memory (WM) activity is not as stationary or sustained as previously thought. There
are brief bursts of gamma (~ 50–120 Hz) and beta (~ 20–35 Hz) oscillations, the former …

The heart continuously and cyclically communicates with the brain. Beyond homeostatic
regulation and sensing, recent neuroscience research has started to shed light on brain …

Many theories of perception are anchored in the central notion that the brain continuously
updates an internal model of the world to infer the probable causes of sensory events. In this …

Little is known about the brain-wide correlation of electrophysiological signals. We found
that spontaneous oscillatory neuronal activity exhibited frequency-specific spatial correlation …
