C T O N O D E Entrainment of endogenous oscillatory pattern  Changes in behaviour S • Oscillatory cycle establishes a recurrent temporal reference frame that allows for the coding of temporal relations between groups of neural elements A E • This reference frame is not fixed but is subject to dynamic changes (phase resetting), especially in pathological states . L tACS induces entrainment of brain oscillations following the same principle P (theta, alpha, beta, gamma, ..) Tuth et al. 2012, Current Biology
