Neural pathways mediating cross education of motor function
Cross education is the process whereby training of one limb gives rise to enhancements in
the performance of the opposite, untrained limb. Despite interest in this phenomenon having …

Human motor plasticity induced by mirror visual feedback
The clinical use of mirror visual feedback (MVF) was initially introduced to alleviate phantom
pain, and has since been applied to the improvement of hemiparesis following stroke …

Time-but not sleep-dependent consolidation of tDCS-enhanced visuomotor skills
Consolidation of motor skills after training can occur in a time-or sleep-dependent fashion.
Recent studies revealed time-dependent consolidation as a common feature of visuomotor …

Motor cortex excitability is not differentially modulated following skill and strength training
Aim: A single session of skill or strength training can modulate the primary motor cortex (M1),
which manifests as increased corticospinal excitability (CSE) and decreased short-latency …

Corticomotor plasticity following unilateral strength training
Introduction: We used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to investigate 3 weeks of
unilateral leg strength training on ipsilateral motor cortex (iM1) excitability, and short‐latency …

Stimulating the cerebellum affects visuomotor adaptation but not intermanual transfer of learning
When systematic movement errors occur, the brain responds with a systematic change in
motor behavior. This type of adaptive motor learning can transfer intermanually; adaptation …

Fatigue induces long-lasting detrimental changes in motor-skill learning
Fatigue due to physical exertion is a ubiquitous phenomenon in everyday life and especially
common in a range of neurological diseases. While the effect of fatigue on limiting skill …
