DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2021.01.049
Abstract: We can generate goal-directed motor corrections with surprising speed, but their neural basis is poorly understood. Here, we show that temporary cooling of dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) impaired both spatial accuracy and the speed of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.expneurol.2018.03.010
Abstract: ABSTRACT Stroke results in enduring damage to the brain which is accompanied by innate neurorestorative processes, such as reorganization of surviving circuits. Nevertheless, patients are often left with permanent residual impairments. Cell based therapy is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2019.116354
Abstract: How neurons coordinate their collective activity for behavioural control is an open question in neuroscience. Several studies have progressively proven, on various scales, that the patterns of neural synchronization change accordingly with behavioural events. However,… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "World neurosurgery"
DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2017.05.146
Abstract: OBJECTIVE The premotor cortex (PMC) is known to have a dual role in movement and language processing. Nevertheless, surgical outcomes of brain arteriovenous malformations located in PMC (PMC-BAVMs) have not been well defined. The aim… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-04062-6
Abstract: Our bodies and the environment constrain our movements. For example, when our arm is fully outstretched, we cannot extend it further. More generally, the distribution of possible movements is conditioned on the state of our… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-53985-7
Abstract: The effectiveness of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) placed over the motor hotspot (thought to represent the primary motor cortex (M1)) to modulate motor network excitability is highly variable. The premotor cortex—particularly the dorsal premotor… read more here.
