Despite a constant deluge of sensory stimulation, only a fraction of it is used to guide
behavior. This selective processing is generally referred to as attention, and much research …

It remains a dogma in cognitive neuroscience to separate human attention and memory into
distinct modules and processes. Here we propose that brain rhythms reflect the embedded …

The neural and perceptual effects of attention were traditionally assumed to be sustained
over time, but recent work suggests that covert attention rhythmically switches between …

That attention is a fundamentally rhythmic process has recently received abundant empirical
evidence. The essence of temporal attention, however, is to flexibly focus in time. Whether …

Behavioral consequences and neural underpinnings of visuospatial attention have long
been investigated. Classical studies using the Posner paradigm have found that visual …

The hippocampus supports memory encoding and retrieval, which may occur at distinct
phases of the theta cycle. These processes dynamically interact over rapid timescales …

Representations held in working memory are crucial in guiding human attention in a goal-
directed fashion. Currently, it is debated whether only a single representation or several of …

Can individuals look for multiple objects at the same time? A simple question, but answering
it has proven difficult. In this review, we describe possible cognitive architectures and their …

Attention is fundamental to all cognition. In the primate brain, it is implemented by a large-
scale network that consists of areas spanning across all major lobes, also including …

Sampling of information is thought to be an important aspect of explorative behaviour.
Evidence for it has been gained in behavioural assessments of a variety of overt and covert …
