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 …

The supplementary motor area, although traditionally defined as a single motor area, is not
viewed as including at least three different areas that can be distinguished anatomically and …

Moving in synchrony with an auditory rhythm requires predictive action based on
neurodynamic representation of temporal information. Although it is known that a regular …

We investigated changes of regional activation in the frontal cortices as assessed by
changes of hemoglobin oxygenation during walking at 3 and 5 km/h and running at 9 km/h …

Finger-tapping tasks are one of the most common paradigms used to study the human motor
system in functional neuroimaging studies. These tasks can vary both in the presence or …

To determine whether other digits move when normal humans attempt to move just one digit,
we asked 10 right-handed subjects to move one finger at a time while we recorded the …

Event-related potential studies in man suggest a role for the supplementary motor area
(SMA) in movement preparation, particularly when movements are internally generated. In a …

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that, within a specific cortical unit, fractional
changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen consumption …

The perception and production of temporal patterns, or rhythms, is important for both music
and speech. However, the way in which the human brain achieves accurate timing of …

The brain regions activated by simple repetitive and sequential finger movements of different
length were localized by measuring regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) with PET. The …
