differences between adult vs. infant EEG

August 18, 2020

adults have pronounced alpha-oscillations in the EEG, but young infants lack them. oscillations only emerge gradually during the first year of life. so, in the EEG power spectrum of a 2 month year old baby, there are no pronounced peaks, only the characteristic 1/f-part. 2/n pic.twitter.com/tlSaLxL3pr

paper: waveform shape in bats

March 07, 2024

waveform shape of oscillations can reflect properties of underlying spiking dynamics. if neuronal units fire in synchrony, the local field potential can be more asymmetric (here: sharp troughs).

paper: genuine beta bursts vs beta-activity harmonics

April 21, 2023

I saw lots of beautiful beta-rhythm work lately! there is one specific aspect which I find non-optimal: in the human brain, there are also lots of alpha-rhythms, which may produce harmonics in the beta-band. I wrote about it here in this short article: https://t.co/DjRwLvYbKi pic.twitter.com/DHT12h6FML
