Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease among the
elderly with a progressive decline in cognitive function significantly affecting quality of life …

Cognition results from interactions among functionally specialized but widely distributed
brain regions; however, neuroscience has so far largely focused on characterizing the …

Selective attention mechanisms route behaviorally relevant information through large-scale
cortical networks. Although evidence suggests that populations of cortical neurons …

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 …

The intralaminar and medial thalamic nuclei are part of the higher-order thalamus, which
receives little sensory input, and instead forms extensive cortico-thalamo-cortical pathways …

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 …

The thalamus is classically viewed as passively relaying information to the cortex. However,
there is growing evidence that the thalamus actively regulates information transmission to …

The electroencephalogram (EEG) bears the possibility to investigate oscillatory processes in
the human brain. In the animal brain it has been shown that the phase of cortical oscillations …

We previously showed that neuronal activity in beta frequency might serve as a carrier for
attentional arousal within the visual system of cat. In the present study, we adopted the …

Selective attention is central to cognition. Dramatic advances have been made in
understanding the neural circuits that mediate selective attention. Forebrain networks, most …
