While the visual environment contains massive amounts of information, we should not and
cannot pay attention to all events. Instead, we need to direct attention to those events that …

Neural activity and behavior are both notoriously variable, with responses differing widely
between repeated presentation of identical stimuli or trials. Recent results in humans and …

Timing is critical to most forms of learning, behavior, and sensory-motor processing.
Converging evidence supports the notion that, precisely because of its importance across a …

Research in basic and clinical neuroscience of music conducted over the past decades has
begun to uncover music's high potential as a tool for rehabilitation. Advances in our …

Selective attention comprises essential infrastructural functions supporting cognition—
anticipating, prioritizing, selecting, routing, integrating, and preparing signals to guide …

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 …

Durations are defined by a beginning and an end, and a major distinction is drawn between
durations that start in the present and end in the future ('prospective timing') and durations …

The sensation of groove has been defined as the pleasurable desire to move to music,
suggesting that both motor timing and reward processes are involved in this experience …

During speech listening, the brain could use contextual predictions to optimize sensory
sampling and processing. We asked if such predictive processing is organized dynamically …

Memories are about the past, but they serve the future. Memory research often emphasizes
the former aspect: focusing on the functions that re-constitute (re-member) experience and …
