This study investigates whether tACS can enhance neurofeedback control by increasing lateralised posterior alpha activity, but finds no significant improvement in performance.

This study examines how environmental factors like lighting and obstacle presence affect cortical dynamics during walking, finding they have a stronger impact than age or expectation.

This study shows that older adults prioritize accuracy over speed in sustained attention tasks, but younger adults improve more with monetary incentives.

This study conducts a meta-analysis of M/EEG data from Parkinson's disease patients and healthy controls, identifying consistent periodic and aperiodic signal changes that may inform diagnostics.

The paper investigates EEG markers of vigilance, fatigue, and motivation during sustained attention tasks and identifies distinct neural signatures for each factor.

This study examines how saccade proximity to visual stimuli affects post-saccadic alpha lateralisation, finding reduced lateralisation when saccades land near stimuli.

This study investigates how prolonged sustained attention affects trait and state fatigue levels across the adult lifespan using an online SART task.

The paper describes using public engagement events to collect EEG data from 346 participants, finding that individual alpha frequency peaks in early adulthood and declines later, with no link to fatigue.

This study uses mobile EEG to investigate neural processes during real-world obstacle avoidance, finding distinct proactive and reactive control mechanisms.

This study evaluates whether the end-of-study guess is a valid measure of sham blinding in tDCS by comparing sensitivity during active and sham protocols at different current intensities.

The paper assesses sham-blinding during tDCS and finds participants can distinguish active from sham protocols, but active tDCS does not improve reaction times.
