Movement is a complex process governed by a network of neuronal circuits spread across multiple regions of the nervous system. These regions, including the cortex, basal ganglia, brainstem, and ...

According to the team’s results, the BrainGate array wired directly to motor neurons offered a “sixfold improvement” on the user’s quadcopter piloting when compared to an EEG system. This digital ...

Carnegie Mellon University neuroscientists have discovered connections between the globus pallidus and a rarely explored area of the brain.

The disease presents with a loss of motor control, which is caused by deficiency of dopamine – a direct result of the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the brain. Currently, there is no ...

This study focused on identifying the unique brain connectivity ... involved in self-control, decision-making, and reward processing, including the pre-supplementary motor area, anterior cingulate ...

All of the datasets showed the same thing: three interconnected areas in the motor cortex that weren’t mapped to just one body part. From this data, the researchers mined connectivity ... was also ...

Tap the index finger of your right hand. It's a simple maneuver, yet carrying it out requires a vastly complicated series of actions. First, the image of the words on the screen (telling you to ...

EEG signals combine contributions from large regions of the brain. The authors believe that to restore highly functional fine motor control, electrodes need to be placed closer to the neurons.
