Within the brain’s frontal lobe lies the primary motor cortex, a sliver of neurons that coordinates movement. Beginning in the 1930s, scientists developed a map of this brain region called a ...

The terms mobility and flexibility are often used interchangeably in fitness conversations, yet they represent distinctly different aspects of physical capability with unique implications for movement ...

Muscle synergies represent coordinated activation patterns of groups of muscles that simplify the control of complex movements. This concept suggests that the central nervous system reduces the ...

The parvocellular division of the red nucleus (RNp) represents both observed and predicted error signals, transmitting them to the cerebellum to adjust the aiming. M1 ...

Explore dopamine's role in movement and how it challenges long-standing theories about motor control and Parkinson's disease ...

Movement disorders are neurologic conditions that cause problems with movement due to affect on brain. They can affect different parts of the body, including the limbs, hands, feet, facial muscles, ...

A high-resolution brain interface records movement signals from the brain's surface, enabling real-time control performance similar to invasive implants without entering brain tissue. (Nanowerk ...
