Altered neural oscillations during complex sequential movements in patients with Parkinson’s disease

The sequelae of Parkinson’s disease (PD) includes both motor- and cognitive-related symptoms. Although traditionally considered a subcortical disease, there is increasing evidence that PD has a major impact on cortical function as well. Prior studies have reported alterations in cortical neural func...
