Stroke is one of the leading causes of long-term disability. Advanced technological solutions
(" neurotechnologies") exploiting robotic systems and electrodes that stimulate the nervous …

Numerous neurorehabilitative, neuroprosthetic, and repair interventions aim to address the
consequences of upper limb impairments after neurological disorders. Although these …

Being able to replicate real experiments with computational simulations is a unique
opportunity to refine and validate models with experimental data and redesign the …

Background. An ischemic stroke is followed by the remapping of motor representation and
extensive changes in cortical excitability involving both hemispheres. Although stimulation of …

An obstacle to understanding neural mechanisms of movement is the complex, distributed
nature of the mammalian motor system. Here we present a novel behavioral paradigm for …

Planning and execution of voluntary movement depend on the contribution of distinct
classes of neurons in primary motor and premotor areas. However, timing and pattern of …

Stroke is a debilitating condition affecting millions of people worldwide. The development of
improved rehabilitation therapies rests on finding biomarkers suitable for tracking functional …

Background An ischemic stroke is followed by the remapping of motor representation and
extensive changes in cortical excitability involving both hemispheres. Although stimulation of …

Despite recent progresses in robotic rehabilitation technologies, their efficacy for post-stroke
motor recovery is still limited. Such limitations might stem from the insufficient enhancement …

Preparatory neural activity in premotor areas is critical for planning and execution of
voluntary movements. Previous studies in monkeys and mice have revealed how the …
