Somatosensory cortex participates in the consolidation of human motor memory.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2019
Newly learned motor skills are initially labile and then consolidated to permit retention. The circuits that enable the consolidation of motor memories remain uncertain.

Dual-hemisphere tDCS facilitates greater improvements for healthy subjects' non-dominant hand compared to uni-hemisphere stimulation

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2008
Background Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive technique that has been found to modulate the excitability of neurons in the brain.

Encoding of Intention and Spatial Location in the Posterior Parietal Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The posterior parietal cortex is functionally situated between sensory cortex and motor cortex. The responses of cells in this area are difficult to classify as strictly sensory or motor, since many have both sensory- and movement-related activities, as ...

Avalanche analysis from multi-electrode ensemble recordings in cat, monkey and human cerebral cortex during wakefulness and sleep [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Self-organized critical states are found in many natural systems, from earthquakes to forest fires, they have also been observed in neural systems, particularly, in neuronal cultures.

Partially Overlapping Sensorimotor Networks Underlie Speech Praxis and Verbal Short-Term Memory: Evidence from Apraxia of Speech Following Acute Stroke

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
We tested the hypothesis that motor planning and programming of speech articulation and verbal short-term memory (vSTM) depend on partially overlapping networks of neural regions. We evaluated this proposal by testing 76 individuals with acute ischemic

Baby steps: investigating the development of perceptual-motor couplings in infancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
There are cells in our motor cortex that fire both when we perform and when we observe similar actions. It has been suggested that these perceptual-motor couplings in the brain develop through associative learning during correlated sensorimotor ...

Translating novel findings of perceptual-motor codes into the neuro-rehabilitation of movement disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The bidirectional flow of perceptual and motor information has recently proven useful as rehabilitative tool for re-building motor memories. We analyzed how the visual-motor approach has been successfully applied in neurorehabilitation, leading to ...

Evaluation of Relationships between Corticospinal Excitability and Somatosensory Deficits in the Acute and Subacute Phases of Stroke

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2023
Background: Somatosensory deficits are common symptoms post stroke. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the motor cortex is able to promote motor rehabilitation, whereby its impact on somatosensory functioning remains unknown.

Transcranial focused ultrasound neuromodulation of the human primary motor cortex

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Transcranial focused ultrasound is an emerging form of non-invasive neuromodulation that uses acoustic energy to affect neuronal excitability. The effect of ultrasound on human motor cortical excitability and behavior is currently unknown.

Motor Cortex Stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesPain Medicine, 2006
Motor cortex stimulation represents a paradigm shift in our understanding of the options available for treatment of both motor and somatosensory syndromes including central and neuropathic pain, weakness after stroke, Parkinson's disease, and tinnitus.
