Motor Skill Learning Is Associated with Phase-Dependent Modifications in the Striatal cAMP/PKA/DARPP-32 Signaling Pathway in Rodents. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Abundant evidence points to a key role of dopamine in motor skill learning, although the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms are still poorly understood. Here, we used a skilled-reaching paradigm to first examine changes in the expression of the

Dance training shapes action perception and its neural implementation within the young and older adult brain [PDF]
, 2018 How we perceive others in action is shaped by our prior experience. Many factors influence brain responses when observing others in action, including training in a particular physical skill, such as sport or dance, and also general development and aging ...

Suppression of ipsilateral motor cortex facilitates motor skill learning [PDF]
European Journal of Neuroscience, 2009 AbstractThe primary motor cortex (M1) plays a critical role in early aspects of motor skill learning. Given the notion of inter‐hemispheric competition, unilateral disruption of M1 may increase excitability of the unaffected motor cortex and thus improve motor learning with the ipsilateral hand.

A neural circuit mechanism for regulating vocal variability during song learning in zebra finches [PDF]
, 2015 Motor skill learning is characterized by improved performance and reduced motor variability. The neural mechanisms that couple skill level and variability, however, are not known. The zebra finch, a songbird, presents a unique opportunity to address this

Reactivation-induced motor skill modulation does not operate at a rapid micro-timescale level
Scientific Reports, 2023 Abundant evidence shows that consolidated memories are susceptible to modifications following their reactivation. Processes of memory consolidation and reactivation-induced skill modulation have been commonly documented after hours or days.

Learning fast accurate movements requires intact frontostriatal circuits
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 The basal ganglia are known to play a crucial role in movement execution, but their importance for motor skill learning remains unclear. Obstacles to our understanding include the lack of a universally accepted definition of motor skill learning ...
