Dear all, The next MEG/EEG research group meeting will be held on September 19, 12.15pm in B204, Department of Psychology. Rebecca Millman will talk about: Methods and application of phase amplitude coupling, and I will support her with some simulations. Phase amplitude coupling has received a lot of attention in recent years. The general aim is to quantify cross-spectral interactions in electrophysiological data (e.g., MEG,ECoG). If you would like to know more about the technique before the meeting, I recommend the following very accessible papers by Bradley Voytek. http://knightlab.berkeley.edu/statics/publications/2013/03/25/phaseamplitud… Shifts in gamma phase-amplitude coupling frequency from theta to alpha over posterior cortex during visual tasks Hope to see you all in September. Best, Markus ----------------------------------------- Markus J. van Ackeren PhD Student Department of Psychology University of York YO10 5DD, UK Email: mjva500(a)york.ac.uk
