DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsych.2020.03.020
Abstract: BACKGROUND To achieve goals, organisms are often faced with complex tasks that require enhanced control of cognitive faculties for optimal performance. However, the neural circuit mechanisms underlying this ability are unclear. The claustrum is proposed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pneurobio.2022.102247
Abstract: Understanding the neurophysiological mechanisms that drive human behavior has been a long-standing focus of cognitive neuroscience. One well-known neuro-metabolite involved in the creation of optimal behavioral repertoires is GABA, the main inhibitory neurochemical in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-017-01030-4
Abstract: Cortical activity changes continuously during the course of the day. At a global scale, population activity varies between the ‘synchronized’ state during sleep and ‘desynchronized’ state during waking. However, whether local fluctuations in population synchrony… read more here.

DOI: 10.7717/peerj.12875
Abstract: The oscillation phase of electroencephalograms (EEGs) is associated with behavioral performance. Several studies have demonstrated this association for relatively fast oscillations (>1 Hz); a similar finding has also been reported for slower oscillations, showing that… read more here.
