Description
Research on brain oscillations and event-related electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related (de-) synchronization (ERD/ERS) in particular
became a rapidly growing field in the last decades. A large number of laboratories worldwide are using ERD/ERS to study cognitive and
motor brain function and the importance of this tool in neurocognitive research is widely recognized. This book is a summary of the most
current research, methods, and applications of the study of event-related dynamics of brain oscillations. Facing the rapid progress in
this field, it brings together, on the one side, fundamental questions of the underlying events, which still remain to be clarified and,
on the other side, some of the most significant novel findings, which point to the key topics for future research. In particular, the
chapters of this volume cover the neurophysiological fundamentals and models (Section I), new methodological approaches (Section II),
current ERD research related to cognitive (Section III) and sensorimotor brain function (Section IV), invasive approaches and clinical
applications (Section V), and novel developments of EEG-based brain-computer interfaces and neurofeedback (Section IV).
