This is a Wilson-Cowan model of the basal ganglia thalamocortical cerebellar network that demonstrates healthy gamma band oscillations, Parkinsonian oscillations in the beta band and oscillations in the tremor frequency range arising from the dynamics of the network.

Model Type: Neural mass

Region(s) or Organism(s): Basal ganglia; Cerebellum; Thalamus
