Whisking control by motor cortex

open access: yesScholarpedia, 2015
The rodent whiskers (the so-called vibrissae) are an active scanning sensorimotor system with major perceptual functions. Apart from tactile perception, the whisker motor system also has important contributions to the animals’ navigation and orientation capabilities.

Context-dependent limb movement encoding in neuronal populations of motor cortex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Network activity in primary motor cortex (M1) controls dexterous limb movements. Here, the authors show that the M1 population code varies according to contextual motor demands that are conveyed via the secondary motor cortex (M2).

Modulation of laser-evoked pain perception and event-related potentials with non-invasive stimulation of the motor cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the last two decades new techniques of non-invasive brain stimulation have been introduced that enable relatively long-lasting and reversible facilitation or inhibition of distinct cortical areas by modulating the excitability of underlying neurons ...

BDNF val66met polymorphism is associated with modified experience-dependent plasticity in human motor cortex. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Motor training can induce profound physiological plasticity within primary motor cortex, including changes in corticospinal output and motor map topography.
