Talks and teaching

(some since 2022)

Berger’s rhythm and the harmonic hurdles

October 23, 2024

Talk @ Annual Meeting, Society for Psychophysiological Research, Prague, Czech Republic

Presented historical snippets of time domain and spectral analysis and their link to waveshape phenomena.
Other symposium speakers were supernice, all the talks in our symposium:
  • Cliodhna Quigley: Forgotten Rhythms – Learning From the Past
  • Natalie Schaworonkow: Berger's Rhythm and the Harmonic Hurdles
  • Fabian Schmidt: The Role of Alpha Bursts in Supra-Sensory Perception
  • Alice Tomassini: The (Visuo)Motor Side of the Berger's Rhythm – Linking Perception to Action
  • Tzvetan Popov: Waves Beyond Waveforms

Differentiating genuine beta bursts from mu-rhythm harmonics

March 09, 2024

Talk @ Congress für clinical neuroscience, Frankfurt am Main, Germany

Presented in a symposium dedicated to phase of oscillations that I co-organized together with Prof. Christoph Zrenner from the university of Toronto.
we had a cool program:
  • Paolo Belardinelli: Localising alpha and beta oscillations in the EEG to their cortical source
  • Catharina Zich: Spatiotemporal organisation of human sensorimotor beta burst activity
  • Natalie Schaworonkow: Differentiating genuine beta bursts from mu-rhythm harmonics
  • Anirudh Wodeyar: State space models for estimating phase
  • Christoph Zrenner: Does the phase of sensorimotor beta oscillations predict corticospinal excitability?
