This post shares findings from MIT's Miller Lab: cognition is rhythmic.
Their conclusion: competing items in working memory alternately guide attention in rhythmic cycles coordinated by brain oscillations. The original paper 'Visual working memory guides attention rhythmically in humans' is linked, under neuroscience.
