A novel, robust, and portable platform for magnetoencephalography using optically-pumped magnetometers (2024)
Journal Article
Schofield, H., Hill, R. M., Feys, O., Holmes, N., Osborne, J., Doyle, C., Bobela, D., Corvilain, P., Wens, V., Rier, L., Bowtell, R., Ferez, M., Mullinger, K. J., Coleman, S., Rhodes, N., Rea, M., Tanner, Z., Boto, E., de Tiège, X., Shah, V., & Brookes, M. J. (2024). A novel, robust, and portable platform for magnetoencephalography using optically-pumped magnetometers. Imaging Neuroscience, 2, 1-22. https://doi.org/10.1162/imag_a_00283

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) measures brain function via assessment of magnetic fields generated by neural currents. Conventional MEG uses superconducting sensors, which place significant limitations on performance, practicality, and deployment; howe...

Tracking the neurodevelopmental trajectory of beta band oscillations with optically pumped magnetometer-based magnetoencephalography (2024)
Journal Article
Rier, L., Rhodes, N., Pakenham, D. O., Boto, E., Holmes, N., Hill, R. M., …Brookes, M. J. (2024). Tracking the neurodevelopmental trajectory of beta band oscillations with optically pumped magnetometer-based magnetoencephalography. eLife, 13, Article RP94561. https://doi.org/10.7554/elife.94561.3

Neural oscillations mediate the coordination of activity within and between brain networks, supporting cognition and behaviour. How these processes develop throughout childhood is not only an important neuroscientific question but could also shed lig...

Noise Reduction and Localization Accuracy in a Mobile Magnetoencephalography System (2024)
Journal Article
Bardouille, T., Smith, V., Vajda, E., Leslie, C. D., & Holmes, N. (2024). Noise Reduction and Localization Accuracy in a Mobile Magnetoencephalography System. Sensors, 24(11), Article 3503. https://doi.org/10.3390/s24113503

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) non-invasively provides important information about human brain electrophysiology. The growing use of optically pumped magnetometers (OPM) for MEG, as opposed to fixed arrays of cryogenic sensors, has opened the door for...

Simultaneous whole-head electrophysiological recordings using EEG and OPM-MEG (2024)
Journal Article
Seedat, Z. A., Pier, K. S., Holmes, N., Rea, M., Al-Hilaly, L., Tierney, T. M., …Brookes, M. J. (2024). Simultaneous whole-head electrophysiological recordings using EEG and OPM-MEG. Imaging Neuroscience, 2, 1-15. https://doi.org/10.1162/imag_a_00179

Electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) non-invasively measure human brain electrophysiology. They differ in nature; MEG offers better performance whilst EEG (a wearable platform) is more practical. They are also complementary,...

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...
