Oscillatory Traveling Waves During Visual Entrainment in Autistic and Non-Autistic Adults.

Neural oscillations and traveling waves play a crucial role in cognition. In scalp electroencephalography (EEG), waves typically travel along the anterior-posterior axis: forward waves (occipital-to-frontal) predominate during sensory stimulation, while backward waves (frontal-to-occipital) emerge during rest and top-d...

Thalamocortical network dynamics can explain visual impulse responses and perceptual echoes

Summary Although temporal information is ubiquitous in natural vision, the cortex shows strong intrinsic rhythmicity. Recent electroencephalogram (EEG) studies have revealed a component of the visual impulse response function (IRF) resembling a narrow alpha-band (7–13 Hz) filter with a slow decay (the “perceptual echo”...
