The thalamus is a small, bilateral structure in the diencephalon that integrates signals from
many areas of the CNS. This critical anatomical position allows the thalamus to influence …

We review the central tenets and neuroanatomical basis of the global neuronal workspace
(GNW) hypothesis, which attempts to account for the main scientific observations regarding …

Inhibitory control is a fundamental mechanism underlying flexible behavior and features in
theories across many areas of cognitive and psychological science. However, whereas …

Attention is the important ability to flexibly control limited computational resources. It has
been studied in conjunction with many other topics in neuroscience and psychology …

Rhythms are a fundamental and defining feature of neuronal activity in animals including
humans. This rhythmic brain activity interacts in complex ways with rhythms in the internal …

Classic psychedelic drugs such as psilocybin and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) have
recaptured the imagination of both science and popular culture, and may have efficacy in …

Functional MRI and electrophysiology studies suggest that consciousness depends on large-
scale thalamocortical and corticocortical interactions. However, it is unclear how neurons in …

Intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG), also known as electrocorticography when using
subdural grid electrodes or stereotactic EEG when using depth electrodes, is blossoming in …

Classic models of attention suggest that sustained neural firing constitutes a neural correlate
of sustained attention. However, recent evidence indicates that behavioral performance …

Electroencephalography (EEG) has been instrumental in making discoveries about
cognition, brain function, and dysfunction. However, where do EEG signals come from and …
