Can hyper-synchrony in meditation lead to seizures? Similarities in meditative and epileptic brain states [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Meditation is used worldwide by millions of people for relaxation and stress relief. Given sufficient practice, meditators may also experience a variety of altered states of consciousness.

Decoding the influence of anticipatory states on visual perception in the presence of temporal distractors

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Anticipation helps to prioritise the processing of task-relevant sensory targets over irrelevant distractors. Here the authors analyse visual EEG responses and show that anticipation may do so by enhancing the neural representation of the target and by ...

Task-Evoked Dynamic Network Analysis Through Hidden Markov Modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Complex thought and behavior arise through dynamic recruitment of large-scale brain networks. The signatures of this process may be observable in electrophysiological data; yet robust modeling of rapidly changing functional network structure on rapid ...

Testing sensory evidence against mnemonic templates

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Most perceptual decisions require comparisons between current input and an internal template. Classic studies propose that templates are encoded in sustained activity of sensory neurons.

Functional MRI study of feedback-based reinforcement learning in depression

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2022
Reinforcement learning depends upon the integrity of emotional circuitry to establish associations between environmental cues, decisions, and positive or negative outcomes in order to guide behavior through experience.

Nondifferentiable activity in the brain

open access: yesPNAS Nexus, 2023
Abstract Spike raster plots of numerous neurons show vertical stripes, indicating that neurons exhibit synchronous activity in the brain. We seek to determine whether these coherent dynamics are caused by smooth brainwave activity or by something else.

Noninvasive brain stimulation techniques can modulate cognitive processing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Recent methods that allow a noninvasive modulation of brain activity are able to modulate human cognitive behavior. Among these methods are transcranial electric stimulation and transcranial magnetic stimulation that both come in multiple variants.

Complex networks in brain electrical activity

open access: yes, 2005
We analyze the complex networks associated with brain electrical activity. Multichannel EEG measurements are first processed to obtain 3D voxel activations using the tomographic algorithm LORETA.

Optical mapping of neuronal activity during seizures in zebrafish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Mapping neuronal activity during the onset and propagation of epileptic seizures can provide a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying this pathology and improve our approaches to the development of new drugs.

Physical activity affects brain integrity in HIV+ individuals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Prior research has suggested benefits of aerobic physical activity (PA) on cognition and brain volumes in HIV uninfected (HIV−) individuals, however, few studies have explored the relationships between PA and brain integrity (cognition and structural ...
