An auditory stimulation approach modulates brain alpha oscillations and interferes with sleep onset dynamics

Alpha oscillations are electrophysiological features of the human brain linked to fundamental processes including memory and perception. This study introduces a closed-loop auditory stimulation approach to selectively modulate alpha oscillations in the human brain in a phase-dependent and spatially-specific manner.
