Performance in motor sports [PDF]
British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2001 Motor racing is one of the most physically and mentally challenging of all sports, not only for racing drivers themselves, but also for the teams that play an integral role in the eventual performance of the car. It is my belief that, for such a demanding and popular sport, sports medicine is seriously underused.

Innervation Zones of Fasciculating Motor Units: Observations by a Linear Electrode Array
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 This study examines the innervation zone (IZ) in the biceps brachii muscle in normal subjects and those with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using a 20-channel linear electromyogram (EMG) electrode array.

Uncertainty of feedback and state estimation determines the speed of motor adaptation
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2010 Humans can adapt their motor behaviors to deal with ongoing changes. To achieve this, the nervous system needs to estimate central variables for our movement based on past knowledge and new feedback, both of which are uncertain. In the Bayesian framework,

Learning new movements after paralysis: Results from a home-based study
Scientific Reports, 2017 Body-machine interfaces (BMIs) decode upper-body motion for operating devices, such as computers and wheelchairs. We developed a low-cost portable BMI for survivors of cervical spinal cord injury and investigated it as a means to support personalized ...

Cerebellospinal Neurons Regulate Motor Performance and Motor Learning [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2020 To understand the neural basis of behavior, it is important to reveal how movements are planned, executed, and refined by networks of neurons distributed throughout the nervous system. Here, we report the neuroanatomical organization and behavioral roles of cerebellospinal (CeS) neurons. Using intersectional genetic techniques, we find that CeS neurons

Effect of stochastic modulation of inter-pulse interval during stimulated isokinetic leg extension
European Journal of Translational Myology, 2016 Recumbent cycling exercise achieved by functional electrical stimulation (FES) of the paralyzed leg muscles is effective for cardiopulmonary and musculoskeletal conditioning after spinal cord injury, but its full potential has not yet been realized ...
