Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Modulation of interhemispheric inhibition and motor learning by different intensities of bilateral transcranial direct current stimulation in healthy adults

Scientific Reports
Interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) plays a crucial role in performing unilateral hand movements. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been shown to modulate IHI and enhance motor learning, but the most effective stimulation intensity remains
