Rhythmic transcranial magnetic stimulation (rh-TMS) is increasingly used to entrain neural oscillations and probe their causal roles in cognition [1-3]. By delivering pulse trains at specific frequenc...

Selective attention is a fundamental cognitive mechanism that allows people to prioritise task-relevant information while ignoring irrelevant information. Previous research has suggested key roles of parietal event-related potentials (ERPs) and alpha oscillatory responses in attention tasks. However, the informational content of these signals is less clear, and their causal effects on the coding of multiple task elements are yet unresolved.

Scientists protest new “challenge-led” grants replacing funding that supported long-term basic research

Communications Biology - Using MEG/EEG, this study reports that aperiodic broadband power, rather than oscillations, reflects a core response to diverse cognitive demand that links to the...
