TL;DR: This is the first study to verify the HDBR and elevated CO2 effects on the neural correlates of visuomotor adaptation and have implications for spaceflight missions and training.

TL;DR: In a study of the neural bases of normal acquisitiveness, subjects made decisions during functional neuroimaging to acquire or remove everyday items from a hypothetical collection, while maximizing personal preference or monetary profit, suggesting even common items can acquire an incentive salience that makes them hard to resist for acquisitive individuals.

TL;DR: Handedness manifests itself differently in the motor cortices of young and older adults and has interactive effects with age, as well as opposing relationships between interhemispheric communication speed and bimanual performance in the two age groups.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that brain activations and deactivations in response to vestibular stimuli are correlated with balance, and the pattern of these correlations varies with age, and suggest that older adults exhibit less sensitivity to vestIBular stimuli, and may compensate by differentially reweighting visual and somatosensory processes.

TL;DR: It is suggested that, regardless of the polarity of stimulation, tDCS to PFC impairs sequence learning, whereas stimulation to M1 facilitates learning and relearning, especially in terms of chunk formation.
