Beta: bursts of cognition

M Lundqvist, EK Miller, J Nordmark, J Liljefors… - Trends in Cognitive …, 2024 - cell.com
Beta oscillations are linked to the control of goal-directed processing of sensory information
and the timing of motor output. Recent evidence demonstrates they are not sustained but …

Working memory is complex and dynamic, like your thoughts

TJ Buschman, EK Miller - Journal of cognitive neuroscience, 2022 - direct.mit.edu
Working memory is where thoughts are held and manipulated. For many years, the
dominant model was that working memory relied on steady-state neural dynamics. A neural …

Layer and rhythm specificity for predictive routing

AM Bastos, M Lundqvist, AS Waite… - Proceedings of the …, 2020 - National Acad Sciences
In predictive coding, experience generates predictions that attenuate the feeding forward of
predicted stimuli while passing forward unpredicted “errors.” Different models have …

Respiration aligns perception with neural excitability

DS Kluger, E Balestrieri, NA Busch, J Gross - elife, 2021 - elifesciences.org
Recent studies from the field of interoception have highlighted the link between bodily and

Individual alpha peak frequency is slower in schizophrenia and related to deficits in visual perception and cognition

IS Ramsay, PA Lynn, B Schermitzler, SR Sponheim - Scientific reports, 2021 - nature.com
The brain at rest generates cycles of electrical activity that have been shown to be abnormal
in people with schizophrenia. The alpha rhythm (~ 10 Hz) is the dominant resting state …

[HTML][HTML] Ongoing neural oscillations influence behavior and sensory representations by suppressing neuronal excitability

L Iemi, L Gwilliams, J Samaha, R Auksztulewicz… - NeuroImage, 2022 - Elsevier
The ability to process and respond to external input is critical for adaptive behavior. Why,
then, do neural and behavioral responses vary across repeated presentations of the same …

Neuronal coupling modes show differential development in the early cortical activity networks of human newborns

P Yrjölä, S Vanhatalo, A Tokariev - Journal of Neuroscience, 2024 - jneurosci.org

the lifelong neurocognitive performance, yet the emergence of neuronal coupling in these …

Low and high beta rhythms have different motor cortical sources and distinct roles in movement control and spatiotemporal attention

S Nougaret, L López-Galdo, E Caytan, J Poitreau… - PLoS …, 2024 - journals.plos.org
Low and high beta frequency rhythms were observed in the motor cortex, but their respective
sources and behavioral correlates remain unknown. We studied local field potentials (LFPs) …

[HTML][HTML] State anxiety alters the neural oscillatory correlates of predictions and prediction errors during reward-based learning

TP Hein, MH Ruiz - Neuroimage, 2022 - Elsevier
Anxiety influences how the brain estimates and responds to uncertainty. The consequences
of these processes on behaviour have been described in theoretical and empirical studies …

Neural dynamics of predictive timing and motor engagement in music listening

A Zalta, EW Large, D Schön, B Morillon - Science Advances, 2024 - science.org
Why do humans spontaneously dance to music? To test the hypothesis that motor dynamics
reflect predictive timing during music listening, we created melodies with varying degrees of …
