Significant progress has been made in understanding the neurobiological mechanisms
through which exercise protects and restores the brain. In this feature review, we integrate …

There has long been discussion regarding the positive effects of physical exercise on brain
activity. However, physical exercise has only recently begun to receive the attention of the …

Abstract Background Non-invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) paradigms are unique in their
ability to safely modulate cortical plasticity for experimental or therapeutic applications …

The motor-evoked potential (MEP) elicited in peripheral muscles by transcranial magnetic
stimulation (TMS) over human motor cortex is one of the hallmark measures for non-invasive …

Maintaining a healthy brain is a critical factor for the quality of life of elderly individuals and
the preservation of their independence. Challenging aging brains through cognitive training …

The ability to induce cortical plasticity with non‐invasive brain stimulation (NBS) techniques
has provided novel and exciting opportunities for examining the role of the human cortex …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies have shown that cortico-cortical paired
associative stimulation (ccPAS) can strengthen connectivity between the ventral premotor …

It is generally understood that regular moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA)
promotes good health from head to toe. Evidence also supports the notion that too much …

Priming is a type of implicit learning wherein a stimulus prompts a change in behavior.
Priming has been long studied in the field of psychology. More recently, rehabilitation …

Regular physical activity is associated with enhanced plasticity in the motor cortex, but the
effect of a single session of aerobic exercise on neuroplasticity is unknown. The aim of this …
