Brain function is a product of the balance between excitatory and inhibitory (E/I) brain
activity. Variation in the regulation of this activity is thought to give rise to normal variation in …

Beta oscillations have been predominantly observed in sensorimotor cortices and basal
ganglia structures and they are thought to be involved in somatosensory processing and …

Among the rhythms of the brain, oscillations in the beta frequency range (∼ 13–30 Hz) have
been considered the most enigmatic. Traditionally associated with sensorimotor functions …

Human neocortical 15–29-Hz beta oscillations are strong predictors of perceptual and motor
performance. However, the mechanistic origin of beta in vivo is unknown, hindering …

Stroke has long been regarded as focal disease with circumscribed damage leading to
neurological deficits. However, advances in methods for assessing the human brain and in …

In order to understand the working brain as a network, it is essential to identify the
mechanisms by which information is gated between regions. We here propose that …

Since the first descriptions of sensorimotor rhythms by Berger (1929) and by Jasper and
Penfield (1949), the potential role of beta oscillations (~ 13–30Hz) in the brain has been …

A better understanding of the neural systems underlying impulse control is important for
psychiatry. Although most impulses are motivational or emotional rather than motoric per se …

MEG-EEG Primer presents the basic A-to-Z of two non-invasive human electrophysiological
methods, magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG). These …

Recent studies establish that cortical oscillations track naturalistic speech in a remarkably
faithful way. Here, we test whether such neural activity, particularly low-frequency (< 8 Hz; …
