Alpha-band desynchronization in human parietal area during reach planning. Issue 4 (April 2015) - Fumuro, Tomoyuki
Highlights Posterior parietal cortex (PPC) uses frequency-specific dynamics in planning visuo-motor goal-directed tasks. Upper alpha band PPC activity codes for preparing goal-directed actions, whereas lower alpha band PPC activity reflects general task demands and attentional processes that are not task-specific. PPC activates earlier in a goal-directed action.
