Both in wakefulness and sleep, the human and animal brain engages in various types of oscillations that serve multiple roles and functions. Many of those oscillations underlie cognitive processes and are altered in clinical disorders, such as movement and psychiatric. Oscillation research employs a broad range of recording methods resulting in theoretical frameworks that can be tested with computational models. This allows the investigation not only of the function and underlying mechanism of a certain rhythm but also its propagation and interaction with others. A close dialogue between theory and experiments is also needed to develop new stimulation paradigms in order to manipulate the oscillations, enabling new forms of clinical treatment.

This series will introduce speakers who focus on different types of oscillations, covering a wide selection of approaches, from theoretical to bioengineering applications.
