Neural pathways mediating cross education of motor function

KL Ruddy, RG Carson - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2013 - frontiersin.org
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 …

Motor cortex excitability is not differentially modulated following skill and strength training

M Leung, T Rantalainen, WP Teo, D Kidgell - Neuroscience, 2015 - Elsevier
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 …

Stimulating the cerebellum affects visuomotor adaptation but not intermanual transfer of learning

H Block, P Celnik - The Cerebellum, 2013 - Springer
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 …
