Brain Oscillations, Synchrony and Plasticity
Basic Principles and Application to Auditory-Related Disorders
Brain Oscillations, Synchrony and Plasticity: Basic Principles and Application to Auditory-Related Disorders discusses the
role of brain oscillations, especially with respect to the auditory system and how those oscillations are measured, change over the lifespan, and falter leading to a variety of psychiatric and neurological
disorders. Les mer

Brain Oscillations, Synchrony and Plasticity: Basic Principles and Application to Auditory-Related Disorders discusses the
role of brain oscillations, especially with respect to the auditory system and how those oscillations are measured, change
over the lifespan, and falter leading to a variety of psychiatric and neurological disorders. The book begins with a description
of these cortical rhythm oscillations and how they function in both the normal and pathological brain. It explains how these
oscillations are important to auditory, executive and attention brain networks and how they relate to the development, production
and deterioration of speech and language.
In addition, treatment of malfunctioning cortical rhythms are reviewed using neuromodulation, such as transcranial magnetic, direct current, random noise, and alternating current stimulation, as well as focused ultrasound. The book concludes by describing the potential role of oscillations in dyslexia, autism, schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease.

Dr. Jos J. Eggermont is an Emeritus Professor in the Departments of Physiology and Pharmacology, and Psychology at the University
of Calgary in Alberta, Canada. Dr. Eggermont is one of the most renowned scientists in the field of the auditory system and
his work has contributed substantially to the current knowledge about hearing loss. His research comprises most aspects of
audition with an emphasis on the electrophysiology of the auditory system in experimental animals. He has published over 200
scientific articles, authored/edited 8 books, and contributed to over 90 book chapters all focusing on the auditory system.
