Working Memory 2.0

EK Miller, M Lundqvist, AM Bastos - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
Working memory is the fundamental function by which we break free from reflexive input-
output reactions to gain control over our own thoughts. It has two types of mechanisms …

Anticipated moments: temporal structure in attention

AC Nobre, F Van Ede - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2018 - nature.com
We have come to recognize the brain as a predictive organ, anticipating attributes of the
incoming sensory stimulation to guide perception and action in the service of adaptive …

Do age-related differences in aperiodic neural activity explain differences in resting EEG alpha?

A Merkin, S Sghirripa, L Graetz, AE Smith… - Neurobiology of …, 2023 - Elsevier
Alpha-band oscillatory activity in human electroencephalography (EEG) becomes slower
and lower in amplitude with advanced age. However, the influence of aperiodic activity on …

Perceptual cycles

R VanRullen - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2016 - cell.com
Brain function involves oscillations at various frequencies. This could imply that perception
and cognition operate periodically, as a succession of cycles mirroring the underlying …

Rhythmic facilitation of sensory processing: A critical review

S Haegens, EZ Golumbic - Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2018 - Elsevier
Here we review the role of brain oscillations in sensory processing. We examine the idea
that neural entrainment of intrinsic oscillations underlies the processing of rhythmic stimuli in …

Alpha and gamma oscillations characterize feedback and feedforward processing in monkey visual cortex

T Van Kerkoerle, MW Self, B Dagnino… - Proceedings of the …, 2014 - pnas.org
Cognitive functions rely on the coordinated activity of neurons in many brain regions, but the
interactions between cortical areas are not yet well understood. Here we investigated …

Working memory and neural oscillations: alpha–gamma versus theta–gamma codes for distinct WM information?

F Roux, PJ Uhlhaas - Trends in cognitive sciences, 2014 - cell.com
Neural oscillations at different frequencies have recently been related to a wide range of
basic and higher cognitive processes. One possible role of oscillatory activity is to assure the …

Proactive sensing of periodic and aperiodic auditory patterns

JM Rimmele, B Morillon, D Poeppel, LH Arnal - Trends in cognitive …, 2018 - cell.com
The ability to predict when something will happen facilitates sensory processing and the
ensuing computations. Building on the observation that neural activity entrains to periodic …

Inhibition in selective attention

D Van Moorselaar, HA Slagter - … of the New York Academy of …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Our ability to focus on goal‐relevant aspects of the environment is critically dependent on
our ability to ignore or inhibit distracting information. One perspective is that distractor …

Modulating human memory via entrainment of brain oscillations

S Hanslmayr, N Axmacher, CS Inman - Trends in neurosciences, 2019 - cell.com
In the human brain, oscillations occur during neural processes that are relevant for memory.
This has been demonstrated by a plethora of studies relating memory processes to specific …
