Rhythms are a fundamental and defining feature of neuronal activity in animals including
humans. This rhythmic brain activity interacts in complex ways with rhythms in the internal …

In the human brain, oscillations occur during neural processes that are relevant for memory.
This has been demonstrated by a plethora of studies relating memory processes to specific …

Studies have shown that gamma oscillations (30–100 Hz) are relevant for neurocircuit
function, behavior, and memory. To examine a possible causal contribution of gamma …

Active learning is a critical component of human development, however, the mechanisms
supporting it are not fully understood. Given that early learning experiences may affect both …

In an increasingly complex information society, demands for cognitive functioning are
growing steadily. In recent years, numerous strategies to augment brain function have been …

For the past 50 years, cognitive scientists have assumed that training attention and self-
control must be effortful. However, growing evidence suggests promising effects of effortless …

The hippocampus has a well-established role in spatial and episodic memory but a broader
function has been proposed including aspects of perception and relational processing …

Active navigation seems to yield better spatial knowledge than passive navigation, but it is
unclear how active decision-making influences learning and memory. Here, we examined …

Rhythms exist both in the embodied brain and the built environment. Becoming attuned to
the rhythms of the environment, such as repetitive columns, can greatly affect perception …

Contemporary conceptualizations on infant cognitive development focus on predictive
processes; the basic idea is that the brain continuously creates predictions about what is …
