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 …

Here we review the role of brain oscillations in sensory processing. We examine the idea
that neural entrainment of intrinsic oscillations underlies the processing of rhythmic stimuli in …

Exploring EEG alpha oscillations has generated considerable interest, in particular with
regards to the role they play in cognitive, psychomotor, psycho-emotional and physiological …

Overt exploration or sampling behaviors, such as whisking, sniffing, and saccadic eye
movements [1, 2], are often characterized by a rhythm. In addition, the electrophysiologically …

A central feature of human brain activity is the alpha rhythm: a 7–13 Hz oscillation observed
most notably over occipitoparietal brain regions during periods of eyes‐closed rest. Alpha …

The notion of driving brain oscillations by directly stimulating neuronal elements with
rhythmic stimulation protocols has become increasingly popular in research on brain …

Although we have convincing evidence that attention to auditory stimuli modulates neuronal
responses at or before the level of primary auditory cortex (A1), the underlying physiological …

Alpha oscillations are ubiquitous in the brain, but their role in cortical processing remains a
matter of debate. Recently, evidence has begun to accumulate in support of a role for alpha …

We have previously shown that beta-band EEG activity is related to attentional modulation in
the visual system of cats and humans. In a separate experiment we also observed that some …

Our brain does not process incoming sensory stimuli mechanistically. Instead the current
brain state modulates our reaction to a stimulus. This modulation can be investigated by …
