Dansk studie afslører: Hjernen ændrer sig på 3 måder, når du hører musik
Hjerneforskere fra Aarhus Universitet kaster lys over hjernens netværk, når vi hører lyde og musik. Det kan potentielt gøre os bedre til at screene for blandt andet demens i fremtiden, håber de.

1/n 🔍 At the core of FREQ-NESS is Generalized Eigendecomposition (GED) - a powerful linear decomposition technique that allows us to separate overlapping neural processes based on their dominant frequency, by contrasting narrowband vs broadband activity. #Neuroscience #FREQNESS

2/n 🧘‍♂️ During rest, FREQ-NESS reliably separates well-known resting state brain networks — the Default Mode Network, alpha-band parieto-occipital, and motor-beta sensorimotor topographies. Textbook configurations emerge directly from the data and based on frequency, without predefining regions.

3/n 🎧 Auditory stimulation reshapes the entire frequency-resolved network landscape: • EMERGENCE: Attunement to the 2.4 Hz stimulation • RE-ARRANGEMENT: Spatial shift of alpha from occipital to sensorimotor, spectral shift to high alpha activity • INVARIANCE: Beta networks remain unchanged

4/ Provided the network separation, we also tracked cross-frequency coupling (CFC) between networks. During passive listening to the metronome, the phase of low-freq (2.4 Hz) auditory networks selectively modulates the gamma band amplitude in more distributed medial temporal networks.
