In an EEG study spearheaded by Marlena Baldauf, we show that 8-month-old babies’ visual systems resonate at 4Hz (theta rhythm) — unlike adults, who resonate around 10Hz (alpha).

👩🦰🧠 echoes at ~10Hz

In our Trends in Cogn Sci paper we point to the connectivity crisis in task-based human EEG/MEG research: many connectivity metrics, too little replication. Time for community-wide benchmarking to build robust, generalisable measures across labs & tasks. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

New EEG study with collaborators at Beijing Normal University: during visual load children with ADHD (unlike controls), fail to downregulate aud MMN, show enhanced P3a and increased frontal theta. MMN latency vs amplitude dissociate inattention vs hyperactivity.
