Background Audiovisual stimulation, such as auditory stimulation, light stimulation, and
audiovisual combined stimulation, as a non‐invasive stimulation, which can induce gamma …

Background: A resurgence of neurobiological and clinical research is currently underway
into the therapeutic potential of serotonergic or 'classical'psychedelics, such as the …

This article explores the notion that the brain is genetically endowed with an innate virtual
reality generator that–through experience-dependent plasticity–becomes a generative or …

Leading neuroscientific theories posit a central role for the functional integration of cortical
areas in conscious states. Considerable evidence supporting this hypothesis is based on …

Nasal respiration influences brain dynamics by phase-entraining neural oscillations at the
same frequency as the breathing rate and by phase-modulating the activity of faster gamma …

Background Significant advances have been made in our understanding of subcortical
processes related to anesthetic-and sleep-induced unconsciousness, but the associated …

Clinical and experimental data from the last nine decades indicate that the preoptic area of
the hypothalamus is a critical node in a brain network that controls sleep onset and …

We lack detailed knowledge about the spatio-temporal physiological signatures of REM
sleep, especially in humans. By analyzing intracranial electrode data from humans, we …

Background There is limited understanding of cortical neurochemistry and cortical
connectivity during ketamine anaesthesia. We conducted a systematic study to investigate …

In most mammals, the sleep-wake cycle is constituted by three behavioral states:
wakefulness (W), non-REM (NREM) sleep, and REM sleep. These states are associated …
