Beyond the Status Quo: A Role for Beta Oscillations in Endogenous Content (Re)Activation

Among the rhythms of the brain, oscillations in the beta frequency range (∼13-30 Hz) have been considered the most enigmatic. Traditionally associated with sensorimotor functions, beta oscillations have recently become more broadly implicated in top-down processing, long-range communication, and preservation of the current brain state. Here, we extend and refine these views based on accumulating new findings of content-specific...
