New preprint out! In this opinion paper, we review our recent work showing that frontal beta frequency shifts signal categorical decisions. We propose that the observed frequency modulations emerge from the recruitment of distinct neural ensembles when different (categorical) decisions are made.

Another paper out! New research from our lab explores how beta-band activity signals decisions. We show that subtle shifts in beta-band *frequency* signal categorical decision outcomes — a neural signature that generalizes across tasks and species. ➡️ www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

Fluctuations in #AlphaOscillations influence whether we perceive faint stimuli, but how? @joeyzhou.bsky.social @haegenslab.bsky.social &co show that alpha associated with the #visual system modulate sensitivity, while #sensorimotor alpha affects decision criteria @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4ho3ecR

Check out our latest work led by @joeyzhou.bsky.social on alpha oscillatory networks in PLOS Biology! ➡️ journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... Do ongoing alpha activity fluctuations influence perceptual sensitivity or criterion?

Low alpha power boosts faint stimulus detection—but how? 🤔 After much head-scratching, we took a network approach and found that different alpha networks play distinct roles: the visual alpha network tunes perceptual sensitivity, while the sensorimotor alpha network shapes decision criteria. 🧠✨

New paper out! peerj.com/articles/184... We asked whether neural mechanisms for time estimation are similar in monkeys and humans. We compared ERPs during a temporal bisection task, in which participants had to determine whether the duration of a time interval was longer or shorter than a prototype.
