Journal ArticleDOI

Both primary motor cortex and supplementary motor area play an important role in complex finger movement

TL;DR: Not only the supplementary motor area but also the M1-S1 seems to play an important role in the execution of complex sequential finger movements, in agreement with previous electrophysiological findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional coupling and regional activation of human cortical motor areas during simple, internally paced and externally paced finger movements.

TL;DR: It is suggested that important aspects of information processing in the human motor system could be based on network-like oscillatory cortical activity and might be modulated on at least two levels, which to some extent can operate independently from each other: regional activation (task-related power) and inter-regional functional coupling.
Journal ArticleDOI

The functional neuroanatomy of simple and complex sequential finger movements: a PET study.

TL;DR: The results suggest that sequential finger movements recruit discrete sets of brain areas with different functions, consistent with the hypothesis that these areas function in the storage of motor sequences in spatial working memory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Critical period for cross-modal plasticity in blind humans: a functional MRI study.

TL;DR: The primary visual cortex (V1) in congenitally blind humans has been shown to be involved in tactile discrimination tasks, indicating that there is a shift in function of this area of cortex, but the age dependency of the reorganization is not fully known.
