Entraining the Brain with Music and Synchronized Light to Improve Memory and Preserve Cognitive Function Open
Worldwide at least 57 million individuals are currently living with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and by 2050 nearly 13 million Americans are projected to have AD. Pharmacological interventions have not been successful in producing significant…

Chapter 1: What is rhythm and how can we study it? Open
Rhythm. What is it? We all have an intuitive understanding of rhythm: The term is used widely to describe temporal structures of any kind. These range from the rhythm of the tides, or seasons, the random - yet rhythmic - drumming of rain o…

Fractal Analysis of Electrodermal Activity for Emotion Recognition: A Novel Approach Using Detrended Fluctuation Analysis and Wavelet Entropy Open
The field of emotion recognition from physiological signals is a growing area of research with significant implications for both mental health monitoring and human–computer interaction. This study introduces a novel approach to detecting e…

Neural dynamics of predictive timing and motor engagement in music listening Open
Why do humans spontaneously dance to music? To test the hypothesis that motor dynamics reflect predictive timing during music listening, we created melodies with varying degrees of rhythmic predictability (syncopation) and asked participan…

Hebbian learning with elasticity explains how the spontaneous motor tempo affects music performance synchronization Open
A musician’s spontaneous rate of movement, called spontaneous motor tempo (SMT), can be measured while spontaneously playing a simple melody. Data shows that the SMT influences the musician’s tempo and synchronization. In this study we pre…

Dynamic models for musical rhythm perception and coordination Open
Rhythmicity permeates large parts of human experience. Humans generate various motor and brain rhythms spanning a range of frequencies. We also experience and synchronize to externally imposed rhythmicity, for example from music and song o…

Neural dynamics of predictive timing and motor engagement in music listening Open
Why do humans spontaneously dance to music? To test the hypothesis that motor dynamics reflect predictive timing during music listening, we built melodies with varying degrees of rhythmic predictability. Magnetoencephalography data showed …

Neural Entrainment to Musical Pulse in Naturalistic Music Is Preserved in Aging: Implications for Music-Based Interventions Open
Neural entrainment to musical rhythm is thought to underlie the perception and production of music. In aging populations, the strength of neural entrainment to rhythm has been found to be attenuated, particularly during attentive listening…

Collective dynamics support group drumming, reduce variability, and stabilize tempo drift Open
Humans are social animals who engage in a variety of collective activities requiring coordinated action. Among these, music is a defining and ancient aspect of human sociality. Human social interaction has largely been addressed in dyadic …

A Dynamical, Radically Embodied, and Ecological Theory of Rhythm Development Open
Musical rhythm abilities—the perception of and coordinated action to the rhythmic structure of music—undergo remarkable change over human development. In the current paper, we introduce a theoretical framework for modeling the development …

Integrating music‐based interventions with Gamma‐frequency stimulation: Implications for healthy ageing Open
In recent years, music‐based interventions (MBIs) have risen in popularity as a non‐invasive, sustainable form of care for treating dementia‐related disorders, such as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Despite t…

Entrainment of Weakly Coupled Canonical Oscillators with Applications in Gradient Frequency Neural Networks Using Approximating Analytical Methods Open
Solving phase equations for systems with high degrees of nonlinearities is cumbersome. However, in the case of two coupled canonical oscillators, that is, a reduced model of translated Wilson–Cowan neuronal dynamics, under slowly varying a…

Delayed feedback embedded in perception-action coordination cycles results in anticipation behavior during synchronized rhythmic action: A dynamical systems approach Open
Dancing and playing music require people to coordinate actions with auditory rhythms. In laboratory perception-action coordination tasks, people are asked to synchronize taps with a metronome. When synchronizing with a metronome, people te…

Neural Entrainment to the Beat: The “Missing-Pulse” Phenomenon Open
Most humans have a near-automatic inclination to tap, clap, or move to the beat of music. The capacity to extract a periodic beat from a complex musical segment is remarkable, as it requires abstraction from the temporal structure of the s…

Beat Keeping in a Sea Lion As Coupled Oscillation: Implications for Comparative Understanding of Human Rhythm Open
Human capacity for entraining movement to external rhythms-i.e., beat keeping-is ubiquitous, but its evolutionary history and neural underpinnings remain a mystery. Recent findings of entrainment to simple and complex rhythms in non-human …
