When the sun prickles your nose: an EEG study identifying neural bases of photic sneezingNicolas Langer
Psychological Institute, Division of Neuropsychology, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
PLoS ONE 5:e9208. 2010..Exposure to bright light such as sunlight elicits a sneeze or prickling sensation in about one of every four individuals. This study presents the first scientific examination of this phenomenon, called 'the photic sneeze reflex'...
Electroencephalographic topography measures of experienced utilityAndreas Pedroni
Division of Neuropsychology, Department of Psychology, University of Zurich, CH 8050 Zurich, Switzerland
J Neurosci 31:10474-80. 2011..The results provide important new evidence regarding "how," "when," and "where" the brain evaluates outcomes with different hedonic impact...
A strong parietal hub in the small-world network of coloured-hearing synaesthetes during resting state EEGLutz Jancke
Division Neuropychology, Psychological Institute, University of Zurich, Switzerland
J Neuropsychol 5:178-202. 2011..A further important point is that these hub regions are even differently operating at rest supporting the idea that these hub characteristics are predetermining factors of coloured-hearing synaesthesia...

Division Neuropsychology, Psychological Institute, University of Zurich Zurich, Switzerland
Front Psychol 2:195. 2011..As a further explanation it is also possible that musicians devote more neurophysiological resources into the analysis of unvoiced segments...
