Neural oscillations in beta (13-30 Hz) and gamma (>30 Hz) frequency bands index a variety of sensorimotor and cognitive processes. To compare two rehabilitation regimens for chronic stroke patients with a hemiparetic hand, we randomly assigned them to either music-supported therapy or physiotherapy for 10 weeks. Previously, we reported the music group's improved motor speed, mood, well-being, and rhythm perception.

Although it is well known that the amplitude of electroencephalographic (EEG) alpha waves typically decreases during cognitive tasks, no studies have examined whether this attenuation can be modulated with external interventions. In this pilot study, we investigated whether transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) at a fixed frequency of 10 Hz could counteract task-related alpha suppression in 10 participants receiving experimental (verum) stimulation and 8 participants receiving sham stimulation. As expected, a mental task involving the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT) significantly reduced alpha power.

Humans live in an environment that contains rich auditory stimuli, which must be processed efficiently. The entrainment of neural oscillations to acoustic inputs may support the processing of simple and complex sounds. However, the characteristics of this entrainment process have been shown to be inconsistent across species and experimental paradigms.

Citizen science engages volunteers to contribute data to scientific projects, often through visual annotation tasks. Hearing based activities are rare and less well understood. Having high quality annotations of performed music structures is essential for reliable algorithmic analysis of recorded music with applications ranging from music information retrieval to music therapy.

Alpha oscillations have been implicated in the maintenance of working memory representations. Notably, when memorised content is spatially lateralised, the power of posterior alpha activity exhibits corresponding lateralisation during the retention interval, consistent with the retinotopic organisation of the visual cortex. Beyond power, alpha frequency has also been linked to memory performan ce, with faster alpha rhythms associated with enhanced retention.
