Summary

This study records brain activity from 170 healthy adults using EEG and MRI to understand how beta oscillations help form flexible neural ensembles. Participants perform simple perceptual tasks like detecting sounds or images while their brain waves are measured. The goal is to learn how the brain organizes itself during rest and active thinking.
