The paper investigates how pre-stimulus beta power in different cortical areas predicts explicit and implicit perceptual biases in somatosensory detection tasks.

The paper investigates whether somatosensory perception excitability depends on feedforward neuronal spikes, finding no evidence for such a link using HFO metrics and Bayesian analysis.

The paper develops a method to noninvasively record high frequency oscillations (HFOs) across the entire human CNS in response to somatosensory stimulation, showing low and high frequency responses represent independent processing channels.

This paper develops a multi-channel electrophysiology method to non-invasively record human spinal cord activity with high temporal resolution and demonstrates its application in studying somatosensation and nociception.

This study investigates BCI performance using longitudinal data and finds that signal-to-noise ratio, not mu rhythm connectivity, predicts performance across multiple analysis pipelines.

This study evaluates noise correction methods for electrospinography (ESG) to reduce cardiac artefacts and improve signal quality in human spinal cord recordings.

The paper investigates age-related changes in EEG biomarkers and their association with cognitive performance in older adults.

The paper investigates how local excitability changes in the somatosensory cortex affect neural responses to hand and foot stimuli, finding somatotopic organization in alpha and beta band effects.

Harmoni removes spurious neuronal interactions caused by harmonic components in EEG data, improving the detection of genuine cross-frequency synchronization.

The paper investigates how respiration and heartbeat influence tactile perception by analyzing timing of stimulation during the cardiac cycle and its effects on detection rates.

The paper shows that neural excitability and stimulus intensity affect perceived intensity in opposing ways during early cortical responses.

The paper investigates cortical excitability variability in response to sensory stimuli and finds evidence of criticality through long-range temporal dependencies in neural activity.

The paper compares brain responses to gaze direction during passive viewing and active eye contact, finding similar N170 and P300 effects, and shows emotional expressions influence N170 but not early posterior negativity.
