This article reviews the potential use of visual feedback, focusing on mirror visual feedback,
introduced over 15 years ago, for the treatment of many chronic neurological disorders that …

To make practical recommendations regarding therapeutic strategies for the rehabilitation of
patients with hemiparetic stroke, it is important to have a general understanding of the …

Small-object manipulation is essential in numerous human activities, although its neural
bases are still essentially unknown. Recent functional imaging studies have shown that …

Performance of a unimanual hand motor task results in functional changes in both primary
motor cortices (M1ipsilateral and M1contralateral). The neuronal mechanisms controlling the …

Inhibitory mechanisms are critically involved in goal-directed behaviors. To gain further
insight into how such mechanisms shape motor representations during response …

Although it has long been known that practicing a motor task with one limb can improve
performance with the limb opposite, the mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we …

Behavior arises from a constant competition between potential actions. For example,
movements performed unimanually require selecting one hand rather than the other …

Planning object-directed hand actions requires successful integration of the movement goal
with the acting limb. Exactly where and how this sensorimotor integration occurs in the brain …

Interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) between motor cortical areas is thought to play a critical role
in motor control and could influence manual dexterity. The purpose of this study was to …

The cortical visuomotor grasping circuit, comprising the anterior intraparietal area (AIP),
ventral premotor (PMv), and primary motor cortex (M1) allows transformation of an object's …
