Researchers from the University of Tokyo and Juntendo University have identified a previously unknown structural domain in ...

The Society for Neuroscience (SfN) will honor seven early career researchers whose awards will be presented during Neuroscience 2025, SfN's annual meeting.

Introduction Motor neuron disease/amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (MND/ALS/ALS) is an incurable disease which leads to muscle weakness that worsens over time. MND/ALS is highly heterogeneous in its ...

Abstract: Robotic teleoperators introduce novel electromechanical dynamics between the user and the environment. While considerable effort has focused on minimizing these dynamics, we lack a robust ...

Introduction: Although the effects of self-control on motor learning have been well studied, the effects of self-controlled feedback timing have not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this study ...

Abstract: Robots typically encounter diverse tasks, bringing a significant challenge for motion control. Pretraining reinforcement learning (PRL) enables robots to adapt quickly to various tasks by ...

This study presents potentially valuable insights into the role of climbing fibers in cerebellar learning. The main claim is that climbing fiber activity is necessary for optokinetic reflex adaptation ...

This study presents valuable computational findings on the neural basis of learning new motor memories and the savings using recurrent neural networks. The evidence supporting the claims of the ...

The Scaffolding Theory of Maturation, Cognition, Motor Performance, and Motor Skill Acquisition (SMART COMPASS) provides a revised, integrative framework for understanding the dynamic relationship ...

When faced with difficult tasks, sometimes people hit a mental wall and make the decision to "sleep on it." Returning to the task after sleeping, they often perform better. Why? Rhythmic brain ...
