Published: May 2016

Oscillatory activity in the beta frequency range from sensorimotor cortices is modulated by movement; however, the functional role of this activity remains unknown. In a recent study, Tan et al. tested a novel hypothesis that beta power reflects estimates of uncertainty in parameters of motor forward models.
