DOI: 10.1002/brb3.886
Abstract: Categorization is a fundamental cognitive process, whereby the brain assigns meaning to sensory stimuli. Previous studies have found category representations in prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex (PPC). However, these higher‐order areas lack the fine‐scale… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00429-021-02451-0
Abstract: Implicit motor learning and memory involve complex cortical and subcortical networks. The induction of plasticity in these network components via non-invasive brain stimulation, including transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), has shown to improve motor learning.… read more here.

tDCS over posterior parietal cortex increases cortical excitability but decreases learning: An ERPs and TMS-EEG study

DOI: 10.1016/j.brainres.2020.147227
Abstract: The application of anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (AtDCS) is generally associated with increased neuronal excitability and enhanced cognitive functioning. Nevertheless, previous work showed that applying this straight reasoning does not always lead to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2022.110504
Abstract: Rats readily switch between foraging and more complex navigational behaviors such as pursuit of other rats or prey. These tasks require vastly different tracking of multiple behaviorally significant variables including self-motion state. To explore whether… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2017.08.042
Abstract: Neural correlates of movement planning have been studied most commonly using signals isolated from single cells. However, in this issue of Neuron, Wilber et al. (2017) show that movement trajectories are encoded and replayed in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2020.107555
Abstract: Learning of new motor skills occurs particularly during training on a task (i.e. online) but has been observed between training-blocks lasting up to days after the end of the training (i.e. offline). Offline-learning occurs as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2021.107890
Abstract: EEG alpha synchronization, especially in posterior parietal cortical regions of the right hemisphere, is indicative of high internal processing demands that are typically involved in divergent thinking (DT). During the course of DT, as ideation… read more here.
