Motor skills can take weeks to months to acquire and can diminish over time in the absence
of continued practice. Thus, strategies that enhance skill acquisition or retention are of great …

Motor skills are required for activities of daily living. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)
applied in association with motor skill learning has been investigated as a tool for …

Stroke is a common disorder that produces a major burden to society, largely through long-lasting
motor disability in survivors. Recent studies have broadened our understanding of the …

Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability. Understanding how people recover from
stroke and other brain lesions remain one of the biggest conundrums in neuroscience. As a …

Developing novel approaches to combat age related declines in motor function is key to
maintaining health and function in older adults, a subgroup of the population that is rapidly …

Importance Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease
of the motor nervous system. Clinical studies have demonstrated cortical and spinal motor …

Noninvasive brain stimulation has developed as a promising tool for cognitive neuroscientists.
Transcranial magnetic (TMS) and direct current (tDCS) stimulation allow researchers to …

The cerebellum is critically important for error-driven adaptive motor learning, as evidenced
by the fact that cerebellar patients do not adapt well to sudden predictable perturbations. …

Objective Patients with chronic stroke have been shown to have failure to release
interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) from the intact to the damaged hemisphere before movement …
