State Dependency of Beta Oscillations in the Cortico-Basal-Ganglia Circuit and their Neuromodulation under Phase Locked Inputs
Timothy O. West, Simon Francis Farmer, Peter J. Magill…·Hayriye Cagnan
This paper demonstrates how connectivity in the cortico-basal-ganglia circuit influences beta oscillations and shows that phase-locked stimulation can modulate these oscillations based on network state.
