Neural Noise- Human primary sensorimotor cortex (SM1) beta oscillations help regulate motor and cognitive behavior in both health and disease.1
- Standard assessment of SM1 beta activity depends on costly, complex neuroimaging, which limits scalable and translational use.1
- Researchers propose assessing beta oscillations from peripheral electromyography (EMG) and force recordings instead of neuroimaging.1
- The method recovers movement-induced modulations in SM1 beta oscillations from these easily obtained peripheral signals.1
- Using EMG and force as a proxy could support motor biomarkers for brain–computer interface rehab and closed-loop monitoring without neuroimaging.1 1
