Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022 The motor modules during human walking are identified using non-negative matrix factorization (NNMF) from surface electromyography (EMG) signals. The extraction of motor modules in healthy participants is affected by the change in pre-processing of EMG ...

Motor processing modulates word comprehension
British Journal of Psychology, 2021 We evaluated whether movement modulates the semantic processing of words. To this end, we used homograph words with two meanings, one associated with hand movements (e.g., ‘abanico’, ‘fan’ in Spanish) or foot movements (‘bota’, ‘boot’ in Spanish), and the other not associated with movement (‘abanico’, ‘range’ in Spanish; ‘bota’, ‘wineskin’ in Spanish).

An Algorithm for Choosing the Optimal Number of Muscle Synergies during Walking
Sensors, 2021 In motor control studies, the 90% thresholding of variance accounted for (VAF) is the classical way of selecting the number of muscle synergies expressed during a motor task. However, the adoption of an arbitrary cut-off has evident drawbacks. The aim of

Endocannabinoid Modulation of Dopaminergic Motor Circuits [PDF]
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2012 There is substantial evidence supporting a role for the endocannabinoid system as a modulator of the dopaminergic activity in the basal ganglia, a forebrain system that integrates cortical information to coordinate motor activity regulating signals.

Standalone brushless motor module optimized for legged robots [PDF]
Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences: Technical Sciences, 2022 The main focus of the article is an advanced actuator, designed and optimized for small dynamic legged robots. The presented actuator prototype is unique, as the market lacks similar solutions when dimensions and weight of the module are considered.

Motor modulation of afferent somatosensory circuits [PDF]
Nature Neuroscience, 2008 A prominent feature of thalamocortical circuitry in sensory systems is the extensive and highly organized feedback projection from the cortex to the thalamic neurons that provide stimulus-specific input to the cortex. In lightly sedated rats, we found that focal enhancement of motor cortex activity facilitated sensory-evoked responses of ...

Monoaminergic Modulation of Motor Cortex Function [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017 Elaboration of appropriate responses to behavioral situations rests on the ability of selecting appropriate motor outcomes in accordance to specific environmental inputs. To this end, the primary motor cortex (M1) is a key structure for the control of voluntary movements and motor skills learning.
