Cell type-specific excitability probed by optogenetic stimulation depends on the phase of the alpha oscillation [PDF]
Brain Stimulation, 2022 Background: Alpha oscillations have been proposed to provide phasic inhibition in the brain. Yet, pinging alpha oscillations with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to examine phase-dependent network excitability has resulted in conflicting findings.

Can the Spontaneous Electroencephalography Theta/Beta Power Ratio and Alpha Oscillation Measure Individuals’ Attentional Control? [PDF]
Behavioral SciencesPast studies have shown that spontaneous electroencephalography indicators—namely, the theta/beta power ratio and alpha oscillation—may measure individuals’ attentional control processes.

Alpha oscillation, criticality, and responsiveness in complex brain networks [PDF]
Network Neuroscience, 2020 Brains in unconsciousness are characterized by significantly limited responsiveness to stimuli. Even during conscious wakefulness, responsiveness is highly dependent on ongoing brain activity, specifically, of alpha oscillations (∼10 Hz). We hypothesized

The effect of temporal expectation on the correlations of frontal neural activity with alpha oscillation and sensory-motor latency [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 In a dynamic environment, we seek to enhance behavioral responses by anticipating future events. Previous studies have shown that the probability distribution of the timing of future events could shape our expectation of event timing; furthermore, the ...

Attenuated alpha oscillation and hyperresponsiveness reveals impaired perceptual learning in migraineurs [PDF]
The Journal of Headache and Pain, 2022 Background Anomalous phantom visual perceptions coupled to an aversion and discomfort to some visual patterns (especially grating in mid-range spatial frequency) have been associated with the hyperresponsiveness in migraine patients.

Decoding Analysis of Alpha Oscillation Networks on Maintaining Driver Alertness [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 The countermeasure of driver fatigue is valuable for reducing the risk of accidents caused by vigilance failure during prolonged driving. Listening to the radio (RADIO) has been proven to be a relatively effective “in-car” countermeasure.

The Significance of EEG Alpha Oscillation Spectral Power and Beta Oscillation Phase Synchronization for Diagnosing Probable Alzheimer Disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021 Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in geriatric population. At present, no effective treatments exist to reverse the progress of AD, however, early diagnosis and intervention might delay its progression. The search for biomarkers
