Researchers have discovered that the dorsal premotor cortex serves a 'meta-learning' function, overseeing and regulating physical movements. Once believed to be limited to movement planning, this ...

Scientists found evidence of two interleaved systems, which may help explain the connection between what's going on in our bodies and what's going on in brain areas involved in thoughts and emotions.

In a recent study published in the Nature Journal, researchers performed precision functional mapping (PFM) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to map the functional organization of the ...

The motor cortex homunculus is getting a makeover. New research has essentially redrawn the motor cortex and constitutes one of the most substantial shifts in our topographical knowledge of a sensory ...

The cerebellum, a major part of the hindbrain in all vertebrates, is important for motor coordination, language acquisition, and regulating social and emotional behaviors. A study led by Dr. Roy ...

Dexterity, coordination and balance are all extremely important throughout our lives, but these skills change between early childhood and old age. At which stage of our lives do we have the best ...

Spinal cord injury (SCI)-a condition that leads to partial or complete paralysis-has a profound impact on millions of individuals globally. Despite recent advances in SCI treatment, restoring lost ...

First described 60 years ago, chronic myoclonus following cerebral anoxia is now known as Lance-Adams syndrome. This is a severe disorder whose mechanisms were, until now, poorly understood. Geoffroy ...

Renesas has recently introduced the new RA8T2, an AI-powered motor control Cortex-M85 MCU that can be considered a direct ...

The third group in the Renesas RA8 series of MCUs, RA8T1 devices offer real-time control of motors and inverters used in industrial, building, and home automation. Like other RA8 microcontrollers, the ...
