Motor learning encompasses a wide range of phenomena, ranging from relatively low-level
mechanisms for maintaining calibration of our movements, to making high-level cognitive …

Abstract The exploits of Martina Navratilova and Roger Federer represent the pinnacle of
motor learning. However, when considering the range and complexity of the processes that …

Humans spend a lifetime learning, storing and refining a repertoire of motor memories. For
example, through experience, we become proficient at manipulating a large range of objects …

In order to generate skilled and efficient actions, the motor system must find solutions to
several problems inherent in sensorimotor control, including nonlinearity, nonstationarity …

The public pays large sums of money to watch skilled motor performance. Notably, however,
in recent decades motor skill learning (performance improvement beyond baseline levels) …

The relationship between implicit and explicit processes during motor learning, and for
visuomotor adaptation in particular, is poorly understood. We set up a conflict between …

For the past two decades, it has generally been accepted that sleep benefits motor memory
consolidation processes. This notion, however, has been challenged by recent studies and …

Background and Purpose—Stroke is a leading cause of long-term motor disability among
adults. Present rehabilitative interventions are largely unsuccessful in improving the most …

Adaptation is inherently important for rehabilitation by making movement flexible, but can
also be used to ascertain whether some patients can generate a more normal motor pattern …

Molecular, cellular, and systems-level processes convert initial, labile memory
representations into more permanent ones, available for continued reactivation and recall …
