Neuroimaging of motor recovery after ischemic stroke − functional reorganization of motor network [PDF]
The long-term motor outcome of acute stroke patients may be correlated to the reorganization of brain motor network. Abundant neuroimaging studies contribute to understand the pathological changes and recovery of motor networks after stroke.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Targeting the Entire Motor Network Does Not Increase Corticospinal Excitability [PDF]
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the contralateral primary motor cortex of the target muscle (conventional tDCS) has been described to enhance corticospinal excitability, as measured with transcranial magnetic stimulation.

Aging Changes Effective Connectivity of Motor Networks During Motor Execution and Motor Imagery [PDF]
Age-related neurodegenerative and neurochemical changes are considered to be the basis for the decline of motor function; however, the change of effective connections in cortical motor networks that come with aging remains unclear.

Motor networks, but also non-motor networks predict motor signs in Parkinson’s disease
Investigate the brain functional networks associated with motor impairment in people with Parkinson's disease (PD).PD is primarily characterized by motor dysfunction. Resting-state functional connectivity (RsFC) offers a unique opportunity to non-invasively characterize brain function.

A dual larynx motor networks hypothesis [PDF]
Humans are vocal modulators par excellence. This ability is supported in part by the dual representation of the laryngeal muscles in the motor cortex. Movement, however, is not the product of motor cortex alone but of a broader motor network. This network consists of brain regions which contain somatotopic maps that parallel the organisation in motor ...
