Human alpha frequency and expression across the lifespan: a 2,172-participant electrophysiology-MRI atlas

2026-08-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Individual alpha frequency (IAF) and alpha amplitude are familiar features of human electrophysiology, but their relation to age and brain structure has been difficult to establish from studies confined to one part of life, one recording method, or samples without structural MRI. We assembled a cross-dataset atlas of 2,172 participants, 5.0-89.2 years of age, with hand-validated posterior IAF, a...
