Covertly directing visual attention toward a spatial location in the absence of visual stimulation
enhances future visual processing at the attended position. The neuronal correlates of …

… Gregor Thut Gregor Thut … et al. 2006) or ipsilaterally (α-synchronization; Worden et al.
2000; Kelly et al. 2006; Rihs et al. 2007), and that predict imminent visual processing (Thut et al. …

Electroencephalographic studies in humans have demonstrated that orienting of visual
attention induces a decrease in oscillatory α‐band activity (α‐desynchronization) over cortical …

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 and …

Background Neuronal elements underlying perception, cognition, and action exhibit distinct
oscillatory phenomena, measured in humans by electro- or magnetoencephalography (EEG/…

Oscillations in brain activity have long been known, but many fundamental aspects of such
brain rhythms, particularly their functional importance, have been unclear. As we review here, …

The spatial unity of self and body is challenged by various philosophical considerations and
several phenomena, perhaps most notoriously the “out-of-body experience” (OBE) during …

The posterior alpha rhythm (8–14 Hz), originating in occipito-parietal areas through
thalamocortical generation, displays characteristics of visual activity in anticipation of visual events. …

The notion of driving brain oscillations by directly stimulating neuronal elements with rhythmic
stimulation protocols has become increasingly popular in research on brain rhythms. …

Cortical oscillations are likely candidates for segmentation and coding of continuous speech.
Here, we monitored continuous speech processing with magnetoencephalography (MEG) …
