Overview

Florian Waszak is affiliated with Université Paris Cité in France. Their research primarily spans the field of Neuroscience, with a strong focus on Cognitive Neuroscience as reflected in their publications.

Their published work involves diverse topics related to neural and behavioral psychology, neural dynamics, and brain function. Key thematic areas in their research include EEG and brain-computer interfaces, neuroscience and music perception, action observation and synchronization, spatial neglect and hemispheric dysfunction, and tactile and sensory interactions.

Waszak's frequent publication venues include Brain Research, where they have published three papers, SSRN Electronic Journal with two publications, and single contributions to Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, Scientific Reports, and Cerebral Cortex.

Prominent recent publications by Florian Waszak include:

  • The auditory brain in action: Intention determines predictive processing in the auditory system-A review of current paradigms and findings (2021, Psychonomic Bulletin & Review)
  • Intention-based and sensory-based predictions (2021, Scientific Reports)
  • Human Brain Ages With Hierarchy-Selective Attenuation of Prediction Errors (2020, Cerebral Cortex)
  • Advancements in brain-computer interfaces for the rehabilitation of unilateral spatial neglect: a concise review (2024, Frontiers in Neuroscience)
  • Theoretical Perspective on an Ideomotor Brain-Computer Interface: Toward a Naturalistic and Non-invasive Brain-Computer Interface Paradigm Based on Action-Effect Representation (2021, Frontiers in Human Neuroscience)

Their work is frequently coauthored by a number of researchers, including Álvaro Darriba, Yi-Fang Hsu, Wai Ying Chung, Betina Korka, and Andreas Widmann. Álvaro Darriba is the most frequent coauthor, appearing on ten publications.

Overall, Florian Waszak's research contributes to advancing understanding in several overlapping domains of neuroscience, especially those involving the dynamic interplay of intention, sensory processing, and brain-computer interface technologies.
