The neurodevelopmental trajectory of beta band oscillations: an OPM-MEG study (2024)
Journal Article
Rier, L., Rhodes, N., Pakenham, D., Boto, E., Holmes, N., Hill, R. M., …Brookes, M. J. (2024). The neurodevelopmental trajectory of beta band oscillations: an OPM-MEG study. eLife, Article 94561v1. https://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.94561.1

Neural oscillations mediate coordination of activity within and between brain networks, supporting cognition and behaviour. How these processes develop throughout childhood is not only a critical neuroscientific question but could also shed light on...
