Age-related changes in the basic functional unit of the neuromuscular system, the motor unit,
and its neural inputs have a profound effect on motor function, especially among the …

Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …

Beta oscillations (∼ 13 to 30 Hz) have been observed during many perceptual, cognitive,
and motor processes in a plethora of brain recording studies. Although the function of beta …

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 …

Mammalian brains exhibit population oscillations, the structures of which vary in time and
space according to behavioural state. A proposed function of these oscillations is to control …

The huge number of neurons in the human brain are connected to form functionally
specialized assemblies. The brain's amazing processing capabilities rest on local …

The ongoing pilot clinical trial of the BrainGate neural interface system aims in part to assess
the feasibility of using neural activity obtained from a small-scale, chronically implanted …

Previous studies have shown that synchronized beta frequency (14-30 Hz) oscillations in the
primary motor cortex are involved in maintaining steady contractions of contralateral arm …

It has been proposed that movements are produced through groups of muscles, or motor
modules, activated by common neural commands. However, the neural origin of motor …

Key points• It is often assumed that automatic movements such as walking require little
conscious attention and it has therefore been argued that these movements require little …
