Background Motor system excitability is based on a complex interaction of excitatory and
inhibitory processes, which in turn are modulated by internal (eg, volitional inhibition) and …

The neuronal processes underlying response inhibition are often studied using either event-
related potentials (ERPs) or by applying transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to …

Human behavior must be flexible to respond to environmental and social demands, and to
achieve these goals, it requires control. For instance, inhibitory control is used to refrain from …

Animal experiments show that motor recovery after focal brain injury is accelerated by the
indirect norepinephrine agonist methylphenidate (MPH). The underlying mechanisms are …

We describe the development of a reproducible, child-friendly motor response inhibition task
suitable for online Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) characterization of primary …

Key points Oscillatory brain activity coordinates the response of cortical neurons to synaptic
inputs in a phase‐dependent manner. Larger motor‐evoked responses are obtained in a …

Understanding interactions between brain areas is important for the study of goal-directed
behavior. Functional neuroimaging of brain connectivity has provided important insights into …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies in humans have shown that many
behaviors engage processes that suppress excitability within the corticospinal tract …

In 19 healthy volunteers, we used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to probe the
excitability in pathways linking the left dorsal premotor cortex and right primary motor cortex …

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a standard tool in neuroscience
research and therapy. Here we study one rTMS property that has not received adequate …
