Journal Article
Turner, C., Baylan, S., Bracco, M., Cruz, G., Hanzal, S., Keime, M., Kuye, I., McNeill, D., Ng, Z., van der Plas, M., Ruzzoli, M., Thut, G., Trajkovic, J., Veniero, D., Wale, S. P., Whear, S., & Learmonth, G. (2023). Developmental changes in individual alpha frequency: Recording EEG data during public engagement events. 00 Journal not listed, 1, https://doi.org/10.1162/imag_a_00001

Statistical power in cognitive neuroimaging experiments is often very low. Low sample size can reduce the likelihood of detecting real effects (false negatives) and increase the risk of detecting non-existing effects by chance (false positives). Here...

Distinct frequencies balance segregation with interaction between different memory types within a prefrontal circuit (2023)
Journal Article
Bracco, M., Mutanen, T. P., Veniero, D., Thut, G., & Robertson, E. M. (2023). Distinct frequencies balance segregation with interaction between different memory types within a prefrontal circuit. Current Biology, 33(12), 2548-2556.e6. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2023.05.027

Once formed, the fate of memory is uncertain. Subsequent offline interactions between even different memory types (actions versus words) modify retention. These interactions may occur due to different oscillations functionally linking together diffe...

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) evokes neuronal activity in the targeted cortex and connected brain regions. The evoked brain response can be measured with electroencephalography (EEG). TMS combined with simultaneous EEG (TMS−EEG) is widely u... Read More about TMS combined with EEG: Recommendations and open issues for data collection and analysis.

Challenging inhibitory control with high- and low-calorie food: A behavioural and TMS study (2023)
Journal Article
Bianco, V., Veniero, D., D’Acunto, A., Koch, G., & Picazio, S. (2023). Challenging inhibitory control with high- and low-calorie food: A behavioural and TMS study. Frontiers in Nutrition, 10, Article 1016017. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnut.2023.1016017

Most people are often tempted by their impulses to “indulge” in high-calorie food, even if this behaviour is not consistent with their goal to control weight in the long term and might not be healthy. The outcome of this conflict is strongly dependen... Read More about Challenging inhibitory control with high- and low-calorie food: A behavioural and TMS study.

Top-down control of visual cortex by the frontal eye fields through oscillatory realignment (2021)
Journal Article
Veniero, D., Gross, J., Morand, S., Duecker, F., Sack, A. T., & Thut, G. (2021). Top-down control of visual cortex by the frontal eye fields through oscillatory realignment. Nature Communications, 12(1), Article 1757. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-21979-7

Voluntary allocation of visual attention is controlled by top-down signals generated within the Frontal Eye Fields (FEFs) that can change the excitability of lower-level visual areas. However, the mechanism through which this control is achieved rema... Read More about Top-down control of visual cortex by the frontal eye fields through oscillatory realignment.

The EEG signature of sensory evidence accumulation during decision formation closely tracks subjective perceptual experience (2019)
Journal Article
Tagliabue, C. F., Veniero, D., Benwell, C. S. Y., Cecere, R., Savazzi, S., & Thut, G. (2019). The EEG signature of sensory evidence accumulation during decision formation closely tracks subjective perceptual experience. Scientific Reports, 9, Article 4949. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-41024-4

How neural representations of low-level visual information are accessed by higher-order processes to inform decisions and give rise to conscious experience is a longstanding question. Research on perceptual decision making has revealed a late event-r...

Both dorsal and ventral attention network nodes are implicated in exogenously driven visuospatial anticipation (2019)
Journal Article

Neuroimaging and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies have implicated a dorsal fronto-parietal network in endogenous attention control and a more ventral set of areas in exogenous attention shifts. However, the extent and circumstances und... Read More about Both dorsal and ventral attention network nodes are implicated in exogenously driven visuospatial anticipation.
