Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2013 Perhaps the simplest and most complete description of the cerebral cortex is that it is a sensorimotor controller whose primary purpose is to represent stimuli and movements, and adaptively control the mapping between them.

Ready for change: Oscillatory mechanisms of proactive motor control. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Proactive motor control is a preparatory mechanism facilitating upcoming action inhibition or adaptation. Previous studies investigating proactive motor control mostly focused on response inhibition, as in the classical go-nogo or stop-signal tasks ...

EEG During Pedaling: Evidence for Cortical Control of Locomotor Tasks [PDF]
, 2013 Objective: This study characterized the brain electrical activity during pedaling, a locomotor-like task, in humans. We postulated that phasic brain activity would be associated with active pedaling, consistent with a cortical role in locomotor tasks ...

Plasticity to neonatal sensorimotor cortex injury
Translational Neuroscience, 2010 Abstract A CST-YFP transgenic mouse has been developed for the study of the corticospinal tract in which yellow fluorescent protein is expressed under the control of thy1 and emx1 promoters in order to restrict expression to forebrain neurones.

Perceiving Time to Collision Activates the Sensorimotor Cortex [PDF]
Current Biology, 2005 The survival of many animals hinges upon their ability to avoid collisions with other animals or objects, or to precisely control the timing of collisions. Optical expansion provides a compelling impression of object approach and in principle can provide the basis for judgments of time to collision (TTC) [1].

BMJ Open, 2019 Introduction Why some people develop chronic pain following an acute episode of low back pain is unknown. Recent cross-sectional studies have suggested a relationship between aberrant sensorimotor cortex activity and pain persistence.

Neuroplasticity of face sensorimotor cortex and implications for control of orofacial movements
Japanese Dental Science Review, 2010 The vast and complex array of orofacial muscles and movements necessitate sophisticated and adaptive neural circuits providing for their control and integration with other motor behaviours.

Prismatic adaptation modulates oscillatory EEG correlates of motor preparation but not visual attention in healthy participants [PDF]
, 2017 Prismatic adaption (PA) has been proposed as a tool to induce neural plasticity and is used to help neglect rehabilitation. It leads to a recalibration of visuo-motor coordination during pointing as well as to after-effects on a number of sensorimotor ...

eLife, 2016 We demonstrate that human motor memories can be artificially tagged and later retrieved by noninvasive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Participants learned to adapt reaching movements to two conflicting dynamical environments that were ...
