The new study focused on a specific group of neurons in the motor cortex, the brain region responsible ... and a group of neurons that project to the damaged area. After a stroke, gamma ...

A groundbreaking study used a brain-machine interface to explore how intentions, actions, and their outcomes are temporally ...

Compared to other animal species, humans can plan and execute highly sophisticated motor tasks, including the ability to ...

Researchers led by Jean-Paul Noel at the University of Minnesota, United States, have decoupled intentions, actions and their ...

Your brain then decides whether or not to carry out what it has read. If it decides yes, your brain's motor cortex, a small area that exists on the outer part of your brain, calls for messages to ...

At a time when investigating the functional anatomy of the motor cortex is all but out of fashion in favor of black-box decoders and brain-machine interfaces, it is pure joy to read about a decade ...

Here authors show that in mice, the secondary motor cortex determines it by integrating motor thalamic inputs that promote action based on action values and orbitofrontal inputs that bias to non ...

While caring for these unfortunate individuals, Holmes observed that damage to a small structure at the ... In other words, the cerebellum helped orchestrate the motor commands from the cerebral ...

Such an ability is always needed for adapting to our environment. This learning takes place in the primary motor cortex – a region of the brain responsible for planning and executing voluntary ...
