Abstract: Several neurodegenerative diseases are caused by unstable repeats in DNA. Molecular investigations have revealed that these expansions result in lossor gain-of-protein function and/or RNA toxicity. Typically, the number of repeats influence whether or not a… read more here.

Abstract: Motor learning is a fundamental skill in everyday life. Acquisition of new motor skills engage cortico-striatal-cerebellar connectivity. Particularly patients with Parkinson”s disease and spinocerebellar ataxia are affected but these patient groups fundamentally differ in their… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2017.00445
Abstract: Background Functional perturbation of the cerebellum (CB)–motor cortex (M1) interactions may underlie pathophysiology of movement disorders, such as Parkinson’s disease (PD) and spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3). Recently, M1 motor excitability can be bidirectionally modulated… read more here.
