New vistas for α-frequency band oscillations (2007, unknown): “Whereas the firing rate in tonic mode is linearly related to the strength of sensory signals and is thereby well suited for detailed signal analysis, the transmission in bursting mode takes place in an all-or-none fashion and might be better suited for signal detection [33, 34 ].”
EEG alpha oscillations: the inhibition-timing hypothesis. (2007, background): “Nicolelis and Fanselow (2002), however, reported findings where rhythmical bursting was observed during a state of alert wakefulness that may behaviorally be described as a specific state of attention that may be termed ‘expectant attention’.”
Excitatory Cerebellar Nucleocortical Circuit Provides Internal Amplification during Associative Conditioning (2016, unknown): “…to models of other cortical and subcortical circuits in the brain (Ahissar and Kleinfeld, 2003; Alexander et al., 1986; McCormick et al., 2015; Nicolelis and Fanselow, 2002; Pennartz et al., 2009), it is unknown whether internal feedback mechanisms from the cerebellar nuclei onto the…”
