Driving Oscillatory Activity in the Human Cortex Enhances Motor Performance
Voluntary movement is accompanied by changes in the degree to which neurons in the brain synchronize their activity within discrete frequency ranges. Two patterns of movement-related oscillatory activity stand out in human cortical motor areas. Activity in the beta frequency (15-30 Hz) band is prominent during tonic contractions but is attenuated prior to and during voluntary movement. Without ...
متن کاملBicycling and Walking are Associated with Different Cortical Oscillatory Dynamics
Although bicycling and walking involve similar complex coordinated movements, surprisingly Parkinson's patients with freezing of gait typically remain able to bicycle despite severe difficulties in walking. This observation suggests functional differences in the motor networks subserving bicycling and walking. However, a direct comparison of brain activity related to bicycling and walking has n...
متن کاملAberrant Oscillatory Activity during Simple Movement in Task-Specific Focal Hand Dystonia
In task-specific focal hand dystonia (tspFHD), the temporal dynamics of cortical activity in the motor system and how these processes are related to impairments in sensory and motor function are poorly understood. Here, we use time-frequency reconstructions of magnetoencephalographic (MEG) data to elaborate the temporal and spatial characteristics of cortical activity during movement. A self-pa...
متن کاملFeed-forward synchronization: propagation of temporal patterns along the retinothalamocortical pathway.
Visual responses in the cortex and lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) are often associated with synchronous oscillatory patterning. In this short review, we examine the possible relationships between subcortical and cortical synchronization mechanisms. Our results obtained from simultaneous multi-unit recordings show strong synchronization of oscillatory responses between retina, LGN and cortex, ...
متن کاملNeuronal oscillations form parietal/frontal networks during contour integration
The ability to integrate visual features into a global coherent percept that can be further categorized and manipulated are fundamental abilities of the neural system. While the processing of visual information involves activation of early visual cortices, the recruitment of parietal and frontal cortices has been shown to be crucial for perceptual processes. Yet is it not clear how both cortica...
