A celebrated and controversial hypothesis suggests that some biological systems—parts,
aspects, or groups of them—may extract important functional benefits from operating at the …

A large repertoire of spatiotemporal activity patterns in the brain is the basis for adaptive
behaviour. Understanding the mechanism by which the brain's hundred billion neurons and …

This essay is presented with two principal objectives in mind: first, to document the
prevalence of fractals at all levels of the nervous system, giving credence to the notion of …

Typically one expects that the intervals between consecutive occurrences of a particular
behavior will have a characteristic time scale around which most observations are centered …

Typically, gait rehabilitation uses an invariant stimulus paradigm to improve gait related
deficiencies. However, this approach may not be optimal as it does not incorporate gait …

Naturally occurring body movements and collective neural activity both exhibit complex
dynamics, often with scale-free, fractal spatiotemporal structure. Scale-free dynamics of both …

Many neurophysiological variables such as heart rate, motor activity, and neural activity are
known to exhibit intrinsic fractal fluctuations–similar temporal fluctuation patterns at different …

Many species used in behavioral studies are small vertebrates with high metabolic rates and
potentially enhanced temporal resolution of perception. Nevertheless, the selection of an …

Spontaneous brain activity across many time scales influences sensory perception and
human cognitive performance. Empirical insight into the underlying systems-level …

Human dynamical social networks encode information and are highly adaptive. To
characterize the information encoded in the fast dynamics of social interactions, here we …
