BackgroundThe primary motor cortex (M1) is an effective target of non-invasive cortical stimulation (NICS) for pain threshold modulation. It has been suggested that the initial level of cortical excitability of M1 plays a key role in the plastic effe

OBJECTIVE:Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the primary motor cortex (M1) has beneficial effects on motor performance and motor learning in healthy subjects and is emerging as a promising tool for motor neurorehabilitation. Applying t

Introduction To understand brain function it is necessary to characterize the underlying structural connectivity between neurons. Insects are ideal for analysing how neuronal connectivity shapes complex behaviour. Whilst the nervous system of insects

Task-specific effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on motor learning were investigated in 30 healthy participants. In a sham-controlled, mixed design, participants trained on 3 different motor tasks (Purdue Pegboard Test, Visuomo

IntroductionProprioception (perception of one’s limb position) is critical for accurate and consistent movement, and is processed by the sensorimotor cortex. Increased prefrontal activity is associated with improved proprioception and motor perform

SUMMARYFemale crickets, Gryllus bimaculatus, are attracted by the male calling song and approach singing males; a behaviour known as phonotaxis. Even tethered females walking on a trackball steer towards a computer-generated male song presented from

A characteristic of skilled movement is the ability of the CNS to predict the consequences of motor commands. When we lift an object there is an anticipatory increase in grip force that prevents a grasped object from slipping. When an
