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 …

Many theories of perception are anchored in the central notion that the brain continuously
updates an internal model of the world to infer the probable causes of sensory events. In this …

Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …

We all have a sense of time. Yet, there are no sensory receptors specifically dedicated for
perceiving time. It is an almost uniquely intangible sensation: we cannot see time in the way …

Neuroelectric oscillations reflect rhythmic shifting of neuronal ensembles between high and
low excitability states. In natural settings, important stimuli often occur in rhythmic streams …

The term “predictive brain” depicts one of the most relevant concepts in cognitive
neuroscience which emphasizes the importance of “looking into the future”, namely …

The ability to generate temporal predictions is fundamental for adaptive behavior. Precise
timing at the time-scale of seconds is critical, for instance to predict trajectories or to select …

Temporal expectations have been shown to enhance visual analysis of task-relevant events,
especially when these are coupled with spatial expectations. Oscillatory brain activity …

Although it is increasingly accepted that temporal expectation can modulate early perceptual
processing, the underlying neural computations remain unknown. In the present study, we …

Explicit timing is engaged whenever subjects make a deliberate estimate of discrete
duration in order to compare it with a previously memorised standard. Conversely, implicit …
