Introduction to Induced Rhythms: A Widespread, Heterogeneous Class of Oscillations

  • Chapter
Induced Rhythms in the Brain

Part of the book series: Brain Dynamics ((BD))

Abstract

Adrian (1950) introduced the term “induced waves” for oscillations caused by odor stimuli in the olfactory bulb of cats, rabbits, and hedgehogs, distinguishing these events from intrinsic, spontaneous waves. Recent findings on the coherence of oscillations among and between small sets of neurons in the visual cortex, upon stimulation with moving stripes or gratings, have attracted wide notice (see chapters in this volume by Gray et al. and Eckhorn et al.). Particularly intriguing is the coherence between widely separated sets when stimulated by one long bar and its absence when the bar is separated into two, moving in the same direction and orientation out of phase. Our attention having thus been called to the class of responses that includes a rhythm not present in the stimulus, the question arises where else such phenomena have been seen and whether they reflect a common mechanism or a common role in the brain. The aim of this chapter is to survey previous information as background for the rest of the book, which brings together the new information.
