This study shows that respiration enhances perceptual sensitivity to near-threshold visual stimuli by modulating arousal, cortical excitability, and neural information flow.

This study investigates how neural oscillations support continuous error correction during force control using EEG and an isometric force task with and without visual feedback.

The paper identifies neurophysiological markers of cortical hierarchy and shows how these markers change with age using MEG data from 350 participants.

This study uses MEG time-series analysis to identify neural markers predictive of age, finding that temporal autocorrelation in specific brain regions is the most robust predictor.

This paper introduces new features for characterizing brain states using MEG data and shows they outperform traditional frequency-based features in classification across participants.

This study investigates whether alpha-band lateralization tracks attentional orienting during exogenous cueing and finds it does not align with behavioral inhibition effects.

This study investigates how different oscillatory rhythms in cortical networks support spatiotemporal binding in vision, identifying two distinct networks for temporal and spatiotemporal integration.

The paper shows that pre-stimulus alpha oscillations influence subjective contrast perception by reducing perceived contrast in the hemifield with stronger alpha amplitude.

This study investigates how respiration modulates neural excitability and perceptual performance during a spatial detection task, finding that respiration phase lags align sensory sampling with cortical excitability cycles.

This study investigates the relationship between visual attention and visual working memory by analyzing rhythmic sampling patterns during dual tasks.
