This study shows that real-time gaze sharing during remote piano instruction improves coordination and reduces performance variability by aligning learner and teacher attention.

This paper introduces a training pipeline using augmented feedback to overcome the learning plateau in motor expertise, showing improved performance in piano playing.

This study shows that performance anxiety in skilled pianists affects reward and punishment learning based on task uncertainty, with faster reward learning under high uncertainty and faster punishment learning under low uncertainty.

The paper uses twRSA to show that autonomic responses during music listening are weakly mediated by physiological signals in shaping musical pleasure.

This study shows that expert pianists have enhanced inhibitory function in the somatosensory cortex, improving their ability to process and execute fast multifinger movements.

This study compares how expert pianists and non-musicians adapt to auditory perturbations during piano performance, finding differences in motor responses and neural correlates.

This study investigates active perceptual learning through haptic training, finding that it involves motor exploration and adaptation of sensory integration, improving feedback control of movements.

This study shows that brain network flexibility before musical performance predicts individual differences in tone timbre precision but not trial-by-trial variability.

This study investigates multisensory integration and selective attention in expert pianists compared to nonmusicians, finding enhanced multisensory processing but impaired top-down inhibition in pianists.

This paper develops a noncontact sensing system to measure piano key motions with high precision and identifies key motion characteristics linked to pianists' performance speed and accuracy.

This study investigates how psychological stress affects sensorimotor control in pianists, finding that stress disrupts temporal stability through increased sensory feedback gain, which can be mitigated by specific training.

This study identifies biological factors differentiating finger dexterity between musicians and non-musicians and across trained musicians.
