Application of Magnetoencephalography (MEG) to Analyze Changes in Whole-Brain Oscillatory Microstate Patterns Across the Lifespan: Cambridge Centre for Aging and Neuroscience Cohort Study Research Background With the increasing seriousness of the aging population problem, understanding the neurophysiological changes during the aging process becomes...

Neural Representation of Perspective Shapes and the Effect of Attention: Evidence from fMRI and MEG Introduction We always perceive objects from a specific perspective. In many cases, the shape we rely on when observing an object, the perspective shape, differs from its objective shape, the physical shape in the real world. For instance, a coin rot...

The Spatiotemporal Hierarchical Structure of the Brain in Auditory Memory Recognition and Predictive Coding Background This study aims to explore the hierarchical brain mechanisms involved in human identification of previously memorized music sequences and their systematic changes. While extensive research has been conducted on neural processing of...
