Centrally controlled heart rate changes during mental practice in immersive virtual environment: a case study with a tetraplegic.

TL;DR: A tetraplegic patient was able to induce midcentral localized beta oscillations in the electroencephalogram (EEG) after extensive mental practice of foot motor imagery, providing evidence that mentally practice of motor performance is accompanied not only by activation of cortical structures but also by central commands into the cardiovascular system with its nuclei in the brain stem.

Presence Research and EEG

TL;DR: The fields of presence research and electroencephalography (EEG) are related in, at least, two ways: Firstly, EEG can be used to analyse the neurophysiological phenomena related to presence research, and secondly,EEG can be use to control external devices with a so-called “brain computer interface” (BCI).

Flexibility and practicality graz brain-computer interface approach.

TL;DR: "Graz brain-computer interface" transforms changes in oscillatory electroencephalogram (EEG) activity into control signals for external devices and feedback and supports the self-paced operation mode, that is, users have on-demand access to the system at any time and can autonomously initiate communication.

Lexical memory search during N400: Cortical couplings in auditory comprehension

TL;DR: Partial-directed EEG-coherence analysis applied to assess regional changes in neuronal couplings and information transfer related to semantic processing found Lexico-semantic memory search appears to be subserved by a network between temporal, parietal and frontal areas, particularly restricted to the left hemisphere.
