Recent studies suggest that cross-frequency coupling (CFC) might play a functional role in
neuronal computation, communication and learning. In particular, the strength of phase …

The emergence of a unified cognitive moment relies on the coordination of scattered
mosaics of functionally specialized brain regions. Here we review the mechanisms of large …

We propose a new approach to the neuroscience of consciousness, growing out of the
'enactive'viewpoint in cognitive science. This approach aims to map the neural substrates of …

The frequency tuning of a system can be directly determined by perturbing it and by
observing the rate of the ensuing oscillations, the so called natural frequency. This approach …

The quantification of phase synchrony between neuronal signals is of crucial importance for
the study of large-scale interactions in the brain. Two methods have been used to date in …

Using the concepts of chaotic dynamical systems, we present an interpretation of dynamic
neural activity found in cortical and subcortical areas. The discovery of chaotic itinerancy in …

A major goal of neuroscience is understanding how neurons arrange themselves into neural
networks that result in behavior. Most theoretical and experimental efforts have focused on a …

This paper introduces a new method, single-trial phase locking statistics (S-PLS) to estimate
phase locking in single trials of brain signals between two electrodes. The possibility of …

Brain imaging methods, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and functional
magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), provide a unique opportunity to study the neurobiology …

Nested oscillation occurs when the amplitude of a faster rhythm is coupled to the phase of a
slower rhythm. It has been proposed to underlie the discrete nature of perception and the …
