TL;DR: The results suggest that the brain uses state estimation, provided by internal forward model predictions, to improve motor performance during mental training and that mental practice can, at least in young healthy subjects and if given after a short bout of physical practice, be successfully substituted to physical practice to improved motor performance.

TL;DR: Papaxanthis et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a running head: motor learning without doing (MLW without doing) approach, where the running head is learned without doing.

TL;DR: A computational model of bilateral hand use in arm reaching is developed to study the interactions between adaptive decision making and motor relearning after motor cortex lesion and can explain previously hard to reconcile data on spontaneous arm use in stroke recovery.

TL;DR: It is suggested that core properties of structural brain connectivity, such as the small-world and modular organization, remain stable during brain maturation by focusing streamline loss to specific types of fiber tracts.

TL;DR: Understanding of the causal and nonlinear relationship between limb function and daily use is important for the future development of cost-effective interventions and prevention of “rehabilitation in vain.”
