The motor cortex is the region of the cerebral cortex including the primary motor, premotor and supplementary motor cortices that is responsible for planning and executing actions. Skill ...

Cerebellar patients exhibit various motor impairments, but the sequence of primary and compensatory processes leading to these deficits remains unclear. To investigate this, we reversibly blocked ...

Your brain then decides whether or not to carry out what it has read. If it decides yes, your brain's motor cortex, a small area that exists on the outer part of your brain, calls for messages to ...

"We previously found that motor cortex is not necessary to generate highly automatized learned skills or motor sequences," Bence P. Ölveczky, senior author of the paper, told Medical Xpress.

Propranolol reduces Parkinson’s tremor and motor cortex activity, suggesting a new therapeutic approach beyond stress ...

Wilder Penfield, a pioneering brain surgeon, mapped the motor cortex using mild electric current. Wilder Penfield took the next exploratory voyage into the brain starting in the 1940s. While ...

According to the team’s results, the BrainGate array wired directly to motor neurons offered a “sixfold improvement” on the ...

Infineon recently launched the PSOC Control C3x family of Arm Cortex-M33 MCUs for real-time control applications in motor ...

A collaborative team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh designed a clever ...
