Adaptive body representation requires the continuous integration of multisensory inputs
within a flexible 'body model'in the brain. The present review evaluates the idea that this …

Recent computational and behavioral studies suggest that motor adaptation results from the
update of multiple memories with different timescales. Here, we designed a model-based …

The timescales of adaptation to novel dynamics are well explained by a dual-rate model with
slow and fast states. This model can predict interference, savings and spontaneous …

To date, interlimb transfer following visuomotor adaptation has been mainly investigated
through discrete reaching movements. Here we explored this issue in the context of …

Skilled motor behavior relies on the ability to control the body and to predict the sensory
consequences of this control. Although there is ample evidence that manual dexterity …

Savings is a fundamental property of learning. In motor adaptation, it refers to the
improvement in learning observed when adaptation to a perturbation A (A1) is followed by re …

The extent to which motor learning is generalized across the limbs is typically very limited.
Here, we investigated how two motor learning hypotheses could be used to enhance the …

Motor learning plays an important role in the acquisition of new motor skills. In this study, we
investigated whether repetition of a cognitive task promoted motor learning. Fifty-one young …

Learning a motor task in one condition typically generalizes to another, although it is unclear
why it generalizes substantially in certain situations, but only partially in other situations (eg …

The human brain's remarkable motor adaptability stems from the formation of context
representations and the use of a common context representation (eg, an invariant task …
