The primary motor cortex (M1) is crucial for motor learning; however, its interaction with other brain areas during motor learning remains unclear. We hypothesized that the fronto-parietal execution ...

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease whose main neuropathological marker is the loss of dopamine-producing cells in the substantia nigra 1. Alteration of dopaminergic ...

A research team at the University of Osaka has identified a crucial brain region involved in motor learning during reaching movements. The parvocellular division of the red nucleus, a small but ...

Contrary to previous research, a new study by Neeraj Kumar and David Ostry at McGill University shows that somatosensory cortex is involved in retaining new motor skills. Published in the open-access ...
