Context
This experiment, examines motor planning and control. MEG data is recorded while subjects move a cursor on screen with help of a joystick. Various motion parameters are manipulated on screen so as to examine the dynamics of motor control.
Technology
This experiment uses
- MEG (306 sensors)
- eye tracking (x,y position)
- joystick 2D position (x,y position)
Pipeline
MEG and eye tracker data are merged "out of the box". The raw input is thus a .fif file with 308 data channels (306 MEG + x & y eye position).
The joystick data is inserted. Evoked fields are computed by condition. An anatomical MRI is used to model sources using minimum norm estimate in Brainstorm. Time-frequency source estimates are computed in FieldTrip (using DICS). ANOVAs are used to highlight ROIs. Connectivity between ROIs is estimated with imaginary coherence. Statistical inference is drawn using MEGanova.
