Journal Article
Tewarie, P., Prasse, B., Meier, J. M., Byrne, Á., De Domenico, M., Stam, C. J. (., …Van Mieghem, P. (2021). Interlayer connectivity reconstruction for multilayer brain networks using phase oscillator models. New Journal of Physics, 23(6), Article 063065. https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/ac066d

Large-scale neurophysiological networks are often reconstructed from band-pass filtered time series derived from magnetoencephalography (MEG) data. Common practice is to reconstruct these networks separately for different frequency bands and to treat...

Post-stimulus beta responses are modulated by task duration (2019)
Journal Article
Pakenham, D. O., Quinn, A. J., Fry, A., Francis, S. T., Woolrich, M. W., Brookes, M. J., & Mullinger, K. J. (2020). Post-stimulus beta responses are modulated by task duration. NeuroImage, 206, Article 116288. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2019.116288

Modulation of beta-band neural oscillations during and following movement is a robust marker of brain function. In particular, the post-movement beta rebound (PMBR), which occurs on movement cessation, has been related to inhibition and connectivity...
