Criticality is the singular state of complex systems poised at the brink of a phase transition
between order and randomness. Such systems display remarkable information-processing …

Synchronization of an ensemble of oscillators is an emergent phenomenon present in
several complex systems, ranging from social and physical to biological and technological …

Consciousness has been proposed to be supported by electrophysiological patterns poised
at criticality, a dynamical regime which exhibits adaptive computational properties …

We study a model of nonidentical swarmalators, generalizations of phase oscillators that
both sync in time and swarm in space. The model produces four collective states …

Recent modeling and empirical studies support the hypothesis that large-scale brain
networks function near a critical state. Similar functional connectivity patterns derived from …

Surgery is a therapeutic option for people with epilepsy whose seizures are not controlled by
anti-epilepsy drugs. In pre-surgical planning, an array of data modalities, often including …

Psychedelics have been recognized as model interventions for studying altered states of
consciousness. However, few empirical studies of the shamanic state of consciousness …

The healthy conscious brain is thought to operate near a critical state, reflecting optimal
information processing and high susceptibility to external stimuli. Conversely, deviations …

In the human electroencephalogram (EEG), oscillatory power co-exist with non-oscillatory,
aperiodic activity. Although EEG analysis has traditionally focused exclusively on oscillatory …

Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic widespread pain condition characterized by augmented multi-
modal sensory sensitivity. Although the mechanisms underlying this sensitivity are thought to …
