The paper investigates whether traveling waves in attention networks reflect top-down attention signals or are a byproduct of sustained attention, finding they align with the intrinsic rhythms of engaged sensory systems.

This study shows that traveling waves in the brain support attentional search by causally linking neural activity to behavioral performance.

This study estimates the spatial frequency spectrum of cortical phase dynamics using sEEG, finding that low spatial frequencies dominate across a wide range of temporal frequencies.

This study shows rhythmic light stimulation elicits multiple neural responses at different frequencies that separately affect perception, with implications for neuromodulatory techniques.

The paper investigates perceptual traveling waves in binocular rivalry, finding that attention modulates their propagation and duration.

This study investigates the relationship between theta oscillations and attentional exploration in spatial and feature-based attention using EEG in humans.

This study shows that non-invasive MEG/EEG recordings can detect mesoscopic traveling waves in human visual cortex, challenging the assumption that global sensor-array waves reflect macroscopic cortical activity.

This paper develops a model-based approach to detect traveling waves in human visual cortex using MEG-EEG, showing improved accuracy when modeling stimulus-induced traveling waves.

This study investigates how sustained and exploratory attention modulate perception through distinct neural computations at different frequencies, revealing differential effects on sensory tuning.

The paper demonstrates that alpha frequency perceptual cycles propagate across retinotopic space in humans at a speed consistent with unmyelinated horizontal connections.

The paper shows that attentional sampling frequency increases with task complexity in visual search tasks, as reflected in neural oscillations.

This study shows that high alpha amplitude at specific phases reduces cortical excitability and perceptual performance, supporting the Pulsed Inhibition theory.

This study shows that rhythmic TMS can entrain alpha oscillations in occipital cortex, with entrainment strength correlated with individual alpha frequency.

The paper investigates how alpha and theta rhythms influence perceptual sampling and guessing in a visual task, finding rhythmic variations in precision and guess rates.

This study compares how endogenous and exogenous attention affect visual cortex activity during an orientation discrimination task, finding distinct modulation patterns in different brain regions.

The paper demonstrates that attention reorients periodically at theta frequency (~4 Hz) between stimulus locations during a visual task.

The paper uses TMS to show that both V1 and FEF are periodically involved in difficult visual search tasks at theta frequency, supporting a two-stage attention model.
