This study investigates how feedback and feedforward control mechanisms evolve during continuous motor learning and finds they co-evolve with distinct temporal and frequency-dependent contributions.

This study shows that cerebellar signals constrain cortical preparatory activity dimensionality and promote generalization during motor adaptation.

This study shows that motivation increases the rate of adaptive response in motor learning, enhancing the speed of learning.

The paper investigates whether cortically-evoked movement biases reflect past execution or planning, finding that execution history affects physiological biases but not planned movements.

The paper investigates the neural control of finger dexterity in humans, finding that flexion is more individually controllable than extension, with distinct brain regions involved.

The paper investigates how dexterity in finger flexion and extension movements generalizes across tasks and hands, finding asymmetric and history-dependent control patterns.

The paper investigates how implicit and explicit processes contribute to learning and separating multiple motor memories using follow-through contextual cues.

The paper develops an artificial neural network to model finger dexterity recovery after stroke, revealing neural plasticity and pathway interactions that contribute to improved motor control.
