Information processing in the primate basal ganglia during sensory-guided and internally driven rhythmic tapping

R Bartolo, L Prado, H Merchant - Journal of Neuroscience, 2014 - Soc Neuroscience
Gamma (γ) and beta (β) oscillations seem to play complementary functions in the cortico-
basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical circuit (CBGT) during motor behavior. We investigated the …

Serial representation of items during working memory maintenance at letter-selective cortical sites
