Programmable double traveling waves in living liquid crystals [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsTraveling patterns are ubiquitous in nature. Controlling the traveling waves in living active matter systems remains elusive due to their intrinsic chaotic nonequilibrium nature. Here, we show how to control the traveling waves in living liquid crystals (

Traveling waves in the prefrontal cortex during working memory. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2022 Neural oscillations are evident across cortex but their spatial structure is not well- explored. Are oscillations stationary or do they form "traveling waves", i.e., spatially organized patterns whose peaks and troughs move sequentially across cortex ...

A hierarchical multiscale model of forward and backward alpha-band traveling waves in the visual system. [PDF]
PLoS Computational BiologyRecent studies have shown that cortical low-frequency oscillations are often organized as traveling waves. The properties of these waves have been linked to both sensory processing and cognitive functions.

Locally induced traveling waves generate globally observable traveling waves
The Journal of NeuroscienceCortical traveling waves have been proposed as a fundamental mechanism for neural communication and computation. Methodological uncertainties currently limit the interpretability of noninvasive, extracranial traveling wave data, sparking debates about their cortical origin. Studies using EEG or MEG typically report waves that cover
