Alpha/beta power decreases track the fidelity of stimulus-specific information

Alpha/beta power decreases track the fidelity of stimulus-specific information

Massed synchronised neuronal firing is detrimental to information processing. When networks of task-irrelevant neurons fire in unison, they mask the signal generated by task-critical neurons. On a macroscopic level, such synchronisation can contribute to alpha/beta (8–30 Hz) oscillations. Reducing t...
