Mirror neurons show activity during both the execution (AE) and observation of actions (AO).
The Mirror Neuron System (MNS) could be involved during motor imagery (MI) as well …

Learning new motor behaviors or adjusting previously learned actions to account for
dynamic changes in our environment requires the operation of multiple distinct motor …

Background and Purpose—Hemiparesis resulting in functional limitation of an upper
extremity is common among stroke survivors. Although existing evidence suggests that …

Motor recovery after stroke is related to neural plasticity, which involves develo** new
neuronal interconnections, acquiring new functions, and compensating for impairment …

Recent experimental evidence suggests that rapid advancement of virtualreality (VR)
technologies has great potential for the development of novelstrategies for sensorimotor …

Evidence exists that the observation of actions activates the same cortical motor areas that
are involved in the performance of the observed actions. The neural substrate for this is the …

Human motor skills can be acquired by observation without the benefit of immediate
physical practice. The current study tested if physical rehearsal and observational learning …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has become a mainstay of cognitive neuroscience,
thus facing new challenges due to its widespread application on behaviorally silent areas. In …

Novel experience and learning new skills are known as modulators of brain function.
Advances in non-invasive brain imaging have provided new insight into structural and …

Mirror neurons found in the premotor and parietal cortex respond not only during action
execution, but also during observation of actions being performed by others. Thus, the motor …
