Whether speaking or swinging a bat, precise and adaptable timing of movement is essential for everyday behavior. Although we do not have sensory organs like eyes or a nose to sense time, we can keep ...

A new study by neuroscientists shows that our brain deals with different forms of visual uncertainty during movements in distinct ways. Depending on the type of uncertainty, planning and execution of ...

Researchers at the German Primate Center (DPZ)—Leibniz Institute for Primate Research in Göttingen have discovered that the brain reorganizes itself extensively across several brain regions when it ...

SNr neurons in the midbrain send precise signals to control movement. Their activity determines which movements actions are initiated or inhibited. Neurons deep in the brain not only help to initiate ...

Neuroscientists and engineers at Stanford University are trying to design better brain-controlled prosthetic limbs. In a groundbreaking new study the researchers have discovered that the brain has two ...

People with spinal cord injuries often lose movement even though their brains still send the right signals. Researchers ...

People with spinal cord injuries often lose some or all their limb function. In most patients, the nerves in their limbs work ...

A brain cap and smart algorithms may one day help paralyzed patients turn thought into movement—no surgery required.

Dopamine in the brain influences movement, learning, motivation and sleep. In humans, problems with dopamine are linked to ...
