Stroke has long been regarded as focal disease with circumscribed damage leading to
neurological deficits. However, advances in methods for assessing the human brain and in …

Following a stroke, the resulting lesion creates contralateral motor impairment and an
interhemispheric imbalance involving hyperexcitability of the contralesional hemisphere …

Since the mid-2000s, perturbation-based balance training has been gaining interest as an
efficient and effective way to prevent falls in older adults. It has been suggested that this task …

When learning a new motor sequence, we must execute the correct order of movements
while simultaneously optimizing sensorimotor parameters such as trajectory, timing, velocity …

The role of the cerebellum in motor control and learning has been largely inferred from the
effects of cerebellar damage. Recent work shows that cerebellar damage produces greater …

The dorsal frontoparietal network (dFPN) of the human brain assumes a puzzling variety of
functions, including motor planning and imagery, mental rotation, spatial attention, and …

Reach errors may be broadly classified into errors arising from unpredictable changes in
target location, called target errors, and errors arising from miscalibration of internal models …

Background Spastic limb paralysis due to injury to a cerebral hemisphere can cause long-
term disability. We investigated the effect of grafting the contralateral C7 nerve from the …

Stroke may trigger a number of cellular and molecular events in perilesional and remote
brain regions enabling cortical reorganization and recovery of function. We here …

Brodmann's cytoarchitectonic map of the human cortex designates area 4 as cortex in the
anterior bank of the precentral sulcus and area 6 as cortex encompassing the precentral …
