We carry out theoretical and experimental studies of cross-frequency synchronization of two pulse oscillators with time-delayed coupling. In the theoretical part of the paper we utilize the concept of phase resetting curves and analyze the system dynamics in the case of weak coupling. We construct a Poincaré map and obtain the synchronization zones in the parameter space for m:n synchronization. To challenge the theoretical results we designed an electronic circuit implementing the coupled oscillators and studied its dynamics experimentally. We show that the developed theory predicts dynamical properties of the realistic system, including location of the synchronization zones and bifurcations inside them.

Cognitive reappraisal, an effective emotion regulation strategy, is influenced by various individual factors. Although previous studies have established a link between negative emotion differentiation (NED) and cognitive reappraisal, the underlying neural mechanisms remain largely unknown. Using electroencephalography, this study investigates the influence and neural basis of NED in cognitive reappraisal by integrating aspects of event-related potentials, neural oscillation rhythms, and cross-frequency coupling.

Selective attention relies on neural mechanisms that facilitate processing of behaviorally relevant sensory information while suppressing irrelevant information, consistently linked to alpha-band oscillations in human M/EEG studies. We analyzed cortical alpha responses from intracranial electrodes implanted in eight epilepsy patients, who performed a visual spatial attention task. Electrocorticographic data revealed a spatiotemporal dissociation between attention-modulated alpha desynchronization, associated with the enhancement of sensory processing, and alpha synchronization, associated with the suppression of sensory processing, during the cue-target interval.

Understanding cognitive processes in the brain demands sophisticated models capable of replicating neural dynamics at large scales. We present a physiologically inspired speech recognition architecture, compatible and scalable with deep learning frameworks, and demonstrate that end-to-end gradient descent training leads to the emergence of neural oscillations in the central spiking neural network. Significant cross-frequency couplings, indicative of these oscillations, are measured within and across network layers during speech processing, whereas no such interactions are observed when handling background noise inputs.

We investigated how neural oscillations code the hierarchical nature of stress rhythms in speech and how stress processing varies with language experience. By measuring phase synchrony of multilevel EEG-acoustic tracking and intra-brain cross-frequency coupling, we show the encoding of stress involves different neural signatures (delta rhythms = stress foot rate; theta rhythms = syllable rate), is stronger for amplitude vs. duration stress cues, and induces nested delta-theta coherence mirroring the stress-syllable hierarchy in speech.

Executive functions, particularly visual working memory, depend on the prefrontal cortex (PFC). Phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) has been proposed as a measure of synchronized brain oscillations. To study the neural correlates of working memory in cross-frequency interactions, local field potential (LFP) recordings were made in the PFC of two macaque monkeys.
