  9. "However, there is an important discrepancy between the EEG phase patterns (x) and the phase patterns of the model j. The values of (x) [real EEG] seldom exceed ±20°, or about 5 percent of the mean cycle duration of the ensemble average. The values for ji [modeled EEG] range from +70° phase lead to –160° phase lag from the ensemble average” Freeman WJ., (1980). Use of Spatial Deconvolutionto Compensate for Distortion of EEG by Volume Conduction. IEEE Transactions On Biomedical Engineering, Vol. Bme-27, No. 8. “…my evidence in the past 18 years for sustained synchrony (never antiphasic), for spatial phase gradients in intracranial EEGs from high-density arrays,  and for phase cones with phase velocities corresponding to intracortical axonal propagation velocities as evidence for state transitions.”Walter Freeman

  10. f = dw - a sinf - 2b sin (2f) + Qxt Extended HKB model

  11. Hypotheses about phase relationships in neural cell assemblies at macroscopic level (Near) inphase and (near) antiphase Everything… but no antiphase Only zero lag

  12. Have we really seen the phase that everybody is talking about?

  13. Theoretical hypothesis • Mutual influence depends mechanistically on the phase (Markram: synchrony causes synaptic change)

  14. Operational hypothesis =f ( )

  15. Zero-lag?

  16. Phase preference? Phase locked?

  22. Conclusions:We found no solid evidence to support the preference for zero-lag synchronization in large-scale neural cell assemblies.Because inphase, antiphase, and other phases are differently affected by spurious synchrony, more studies are needed to characterize the real distribution of relative phase in coordinated brain states.
