Background Persons with relapsing and remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) can synchronize steps with music and metronomes at different tempi. However, progressing demyelination, loss of neural connectivity and increased cognitive impairment likely affects how persons with progressive MS (PwPMS) synchronize movements with external beats. We tested how...

Temporal coordination plays a pivotal role in human activities, enabling effective communication and collaboration. Yet, the neural mechanisms supporting this ability remain poorly understood. Recent research suggests that synchronized beta modulation across individual brains, as measured via EEG hyperscanning, may reflect a shared sensorimotor fra...

The brain is a dynamic system whose network organization is often studied by focusing on specific frequency bands or anatomical regions, leading to fragmented insights, or by employing complex and elaborate methods that hinder straightforward interpretations. To address this issue, a new analytical pipeline named FREQuency‐resolved Network Estimati...

Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) and other psychedelic substances profoundly alter human consciousness. While several studies have demonstrated changes in brain function and connectivity associated with psychedelics, we still have a limited understanding of how LSD reshapes brain networks operating across different frequency bands. In this study, w...

This study presents BROADband brain Network Estimation via Source Separation (BROAD-NESS), a novel method tailored for event-related designs, leveraging magnetoencephalographys (MEG) high temporal and spatial resolution to identify dynamic brain networks without predefined regions. By applying principal component analysis (PCA) to source-reconstruc...

To address this issue, we introduce a novel method called FREQuency-resolved Network Estim...

The minimal, essential condition for individuals to interact is that they exchange information via at least one sensory channel. Once informational coupling is established, it enables basic forms of coordinated behavior to spontaneously emerge from the interaction. Our previous study revealed different coordination dynamics in dyads engaged in a jo...

Sensorimotor synchronization strategies have been frequently used for gait rehabilitation in different neurological populations. Despite these positive effects on gait, attentional processes required to dynamically attend to the auditory stimuli needs elaboration. Here, we investigate auditory attention in neurological populations compared to healt...

Humans exhibit a strong tendency to synchronize movements with each other, with visualperspective potentially influencing interpersonal synchronization. By manipulating the visualscenes of participants engaged in a joint finger-tapping task, we examined the effects of 1stand 2nd person visual perspectives on their coordination dynamics. We hypothes...

Neural entrainment, defined as unidirectional synchronization of neural oscillations to an external rhythmic stimulus, is a topic of major interest in the field of neuroscience. Despite broad scientific consensus on its existence, on its pivotal role in sensory and motor processes, and on its fundamental definition, empirical research struggles in...

Across a broad spectrum of interactions, humans exhibit a prominent tendency to synchronize their movements with one another. Traditionally, this phenomenon has been explained from the perspectives of predictive coding or dynamical systems theory. While these theories diverge with respect to whether individuals hold internal models of each other, t...

Background Cerebellar ataxia is a hindering impairment, affecting movement and quality of life. Rehabilitation remains an essential part of management of persons presenting with cerebellar ataxia. Coupling steps to auditory stimuli have been shown to improve gait in neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis (MS), yet...

Rhythmic joint coordination is ubiquitous in daily-life human activities. In order to coordinate their actions towards shared goals, individuals need to co-regulate their timing and move together at the collective level of behavior. Remarkably, basic forms of coordinated behavior tend to emerge spontaneously as long as two individuals are exposed t...

Researchers have widely studied peripersonal space (the space within reach) in the last 20 years with a focus on its plasticity following the use of tools and, more recently, social interactions. Ensemble music is a sophisticated joint action that is typically explored in its temporal rather than spatial dimensions, even within embodied approaches....

Understanding rhythmic behavior in the context of coupled auditory and motor systems has been of interest to neurological rehabilitation, in particular, to facilitate walking. Recent work based on behavioral measures revealed an entrainment effect of auditory rhythms on motor rhythms. In this study, we propose a method to compute the neural compone...

Motivated by mapping adverse artifactual events caused by body movements in electroencephalographic (EEG) signals, we present a functional independent component analysis based on the spectral decomposition of the kurtosis operator of a smoothed principal component expansion. A discrete roughness penalty is introduced in the orthonormality constrain...

{NOTE: please refer to the peer-reviewed version of this paper, available on my profile as full-text: "Modality-specific attractor dynamics in dyadic entrainment"} Rhythmic joint coordination is ubiquitous in daily-life human activities. In order to coordinate their actions towards shared goals, individuals need to co-regulate their timing and mov...

We propose a novel functional data framework for artifact extraction and removal to estimate brain electrical activity sources from EEG signals. Our methodology is derived on the basis of event related potential (ERP) analysis, and motivated by mapping adverse artifactual events caused by body movements and physiological activity originated outside...

Embodied music cognition provides a valuable and comprehensive research paradigm within systematic musicology to describe and explain musical sense-making. The basic claim underlying musical embodiment is that subjective meaning, in its broadest sense, is actively constructed within humans’ bodily interaction with music. As such, the empirical stud...

For decades, IPEM has centred its research program on human interaction with music, developing a theoretical framework known as ‘embodied music cognition’. The theory conceives the interaction with music as bodily mediated and stresses its social nature. For these reasons, the technologies in our Art Science Interaction Lab are meant to provide hig...
