Motor learning and skill acquisition constitute fundamental processes by which individuals enhance their movement capabilities through practice, experience and neural adaptation. This field ...

Motor sequence learning and production constitute fundamental processes by which individuals acquire, refine and automatise complex patterns of movement. This area of research bridges cognitive ...

A new research study examined the results from data generated by citizen scientists using a simple web-based motor test. The big data approach provides researchers with a unique way to explore how ...

Distinct cerebellar projections to the forebrain differentially support acquisition and offline consolidation of a motor skill engaging cerebello-striato-cortical circuits, revealing the temporal and ...

A research team at The University of Osaka has identified a crucial brain region involved in motor learning during reaching movements. The parvocellular division of the red nucleus, a small but ...

Researchers have discovered that the dorsal premotor cortex serves a 'meta-learning' function, overseeing and regulating physical movements. Once believed to be limited to movement planning, this ...

The sensation of controlling one's body and things in the environment is known as sense of agency (SoA). Not only is SoA pivotal for tasks and well-being in everyday life, but its mechanisms have ...

What fine motor control tests can eventually be reduced to practice in the clinician’s office?We invited investigators to submit significant preliminary ...

In a recent study published in Nature Human Behaviour, researchers investigated the causal contribution of specific oscillatory activity patterns within the human striatum to reinforcement motor ...

Data generated by citizen scientists offer researchers new insight into how people adapt and move differently to correct for movement errors “This exploratory approach does not replace lab based ...
