Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of long-term balance training with vibrotactile sensory augmentation among community-dwelling healthy older adults: a randomized preliminary study

TL;DR: The findings of this study support the use of sensory augmentation devices by community-dwelling healthy older adults as balance rehabilitation tools, and indicate feasibility of telerehabilitation therapy with reduced input from clinicians.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of a spaceflight analog environment on brain connectivity and behavior

TL;DR: 70days of head-down tilt bed rest resulted in significant changes in the functional connectivity of motor, somatosensory, and vestibular areas of the brain, which suggests that neuroplasticity mechanisms may facilitate adaptation to the microgravity analog environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduction in Sensorimotor Control With Age

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the effects of aging on motor performance is presented, which suggests that the elderly have a reduced capability to use advanced preparatory information, a difficulty in processing stimuli, an inability to regulate movement speed, and inability to adequately calibrate afferent information.
Journal ArticleDOI

Older adults can learn to learn new motor skills.

TL;DR: The experimental group exhibited faster learning than that seen in the control groups, which demonstrate that older adults can learn to learn new motor skills.
Journal ArticleDOI

Handedness, Dexterity, and Motor Cortical Representations

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that degree of laterality of dexterity is related to the propensity for exhibiting iMEPs and the speed of interhemispheric interactions, however, it is not clear whether iM EPs are directly mediated via ipsilateral corticospinal projections or are transcallosally transmitted.
