The use of dual-task training paradigm to enhance postural stability in patients with balance
impairments is an emerging area of interest. The differential effects of dual tasks and dual …

Physiological brain aging is characterized by a loss of synaptic contacts and neuronal
apoptosis that provokes age-dependant decline of sensory processing, motor performance …

One of the most widely conserved hallmarks of aging is a decline in functional capabilities.
Mobility loss is particularly burdensome due to its association with negative health …

Beta oscillations are involved in movement and have previously been linked to levels of the
inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. We examined changes in beta oscillations during rest and …

Theta burst stimulation (TBS) is a form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
When applied to motor cortex it leads to after‐effects on corticospinal and corticocortical …

Classical studies in animal preparations suggest a strong role for spinal control of posture. In
humans it is now established that the cerebral cortex contributes to postural control of …

To determine whether aging is associated with changes in excitability of the cerebral cortex,
we evaluated the excitability of the motor cortex with transcranial magnetic stimulation …

Ageing is a natural process causing alterations in the neuromuscular system, which
contributes to reduced quality of life. Motor unit (MU) contributes to weakness, but the …

Simultaneous performance of a postural and a concurrent task is rather unproblematic as
long as the postural task is executed in an automatic way. However, in situations where …

A well‐coordinated facilitation–inhibition control of motor neuronal persistent inward
currents (PICs) via diffuse neuromodulation and local inhibition is essential to ensure motor …
