• How to do hyperscanning with LabStreamingLayer (LSL)

Hyperscanning series part 3: How to do hyperscanning with LabStreamingLayer (LSL)

So far, this series covered hyperscanning with BrainAmp amplifiers as well as with CGX Quick headsets. Part 3 introduces a more general approach, which is based on LabStreamingLayer (LSL).

  • Transcranial Evoked Potentials can be reliably recorded with active electrodes (Fig. 1)

Transcranial Evoked Potentials can be reliably recorded with active electrodes

In this article, based on our current work, we compared transcranial evoked potentials recorded with active and passive electrodes. Signals obtained with the two methods did not statistically differ in amplitude and topography, and showed a high degree of similarity across the scalp. We conclude that active electrodes are a viable solution for studies combining transcranial magnetic stimulation and electroencephalography.

  • The sound of silence: an EEG hyperscanning study

The sound of silence: an EEG study of how musicians time pauses in individual and joint music performance

We recently investigated how musical partners resolve unmeasured expressive silences in musical interaction. Partners resolved shorter silences more synchronously than longer silences; partners also displayed enhanced neural markers of motor preparation for shorter relative to longer silences. Thus, shorter silences in interaction may facilitate interpersonal coordination.

  • Carbon Wire Loops (CWLs) in EEG-fMRI studies of interictal epileptic activity

Carbon Wire Loops in EEG-fMRI studies of interictal epileptic activity

At the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital, we work with combined EEG and fMRI acquisition to study epileptic patients to determine the brain region responsible for the generation of seizures that characterize this condition. We use Carbon Wire Loops to help recover a clean signal from the EEG recorded in the MR environment.

  • First Steps to Using Carbon Wire Loops (CWLs) to Correct for Artifacts in simultaneous EEG-fMRI

First Steps to Using Carbon Wire Loops to Correct for Artifacts in simultaneous EEG-fMRI

EEG signals acquired in parallel to fMRI data require the handling of artifacts in the EEG dataset due to electrode motion, for example, by blood pulsation. Using carbon wire loops placed on EEG caps allows you to directly measure these artifacts and subsequently correct for them efficiently using a regression-based approach.

  • Methodology for characterizing network activations with neuro-navigated TMS and EEG

Methodology for characterizing network activations with neuro-navigated TMS and EEG

This aEEG-TMSrticle walks you through the collection of neuro-navigated simultaneously obtained Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) evoked EEG (TMS-EEG) data to investigate network-specific TMS-induced EEG activations, as in Ozdemir et al, 2020 (PNAS), focusing specifically on the methods of TMS-EEG data collection and analysis.

  • From Movement to Action: An EEG Study into the Emerging Sense of Agency in Early Infancy

From Movement to Action: An EEG Study into the Emerging Sense of Agency in Early Infancy

This study investigates whether 4-month-old infants build causal action-effect models, a prerequisite for a sense of agency. Using behavioral and neural measures of violation of expectation, we found evidence for causal models only in a subset of infants. Thus, the sense of agency is beginning to emerge at this age.
