Beta: bursts of cognition
Beta oscillations are linked to the control of goal-directed processing of sensory information
and the timing of motor output. Recent evidence demonstrates they are not sustained but …

Dysfunction of motor cortices in Parkinson's disease
The cerebral cortex has long been thought to be involved in the pathophysiology of motor
symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The impaired cortical function is believed to be a direct …
