Practicing a previously unknown motor sequence often leads to the consolidation of motor chunks, which enable its accurate execution at increasing speeds. Recent imaging studies suggest the function of these structures to be more related to the encoding, s ...

Reward timing matters in motor learning

Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis, Julie Duqué

Reward timing, that is, the delay after which reward is delivered following an action is known to strongly influence reinforcement learning. Here, we asked if reward timing could also modulate how people learn and consolidate new motor skills. In 60 health ...

The aging brain as a model to understand motor skill acquisition in humans and its restoration using non-invasive brain stimulation

Pablo Maceira Elvira

Motor skill acquisition is essential to our survival, as it enables an efficient interaction with the changing world around us. The acquisition of novel sequential tasks, of particular relevance due to their pervasiveness in everyday life activities, can b ...

Neurocognitive and motor-control challenges for the realization of bionic augmentation

Silvestro Micera

Robotic fingers and arms that augment the motor abilities of non-disabled individuals are increasingly feasible yet face neurocognitive barriers and hurdles in efferent motor control. ...

NATURE PORTFOLIO2022

A device and system for e.g. rehabilitation and assistance of hand motor functions, in particular a portable and underactuated hand exoskeleton for use in activities of daily living, is disclosed. ...

Besides relying heavily on sensory and reinforcement feedback, motor skill learning may also depend on the level of motivation experienced during training. Yet, how motivation by reward modulates motor learning remains unclear. In 90 healthy subjects, we i ...

Arm-wrist haptic sleeve for drone teleoperation

Dario Floreano, Vivek Ramachandran, Matteo Macchini

Teleoperators rely on both visual and haptic feedback to perform drone teleoperation tasks, such as obstacle avoidance. Haptic feedback becomes essential when visual feedback is compromised, either due to visual occlusions or poor depth perception. However ...

Creatine is an organic compound used as fast phosphate energy buffer to recycle ATP, important in tissues with high energy demand such as muscle or brain. Creatine is taken from the diet or endogenously synthetized by the enzymes AGAT and GAMT, and specifi ...

Smart Textiles that Teach: Fabric‐Based Haptic Device Improves the Rate of Motor Learning

Dario Floreano, Vivek Ramachandran, Amy Roning Wu, Fabian Maximilian Schilling

People learn motor activities best when they are conscious of their errors and make a concerted effort to correct them. While haptic interfaces can facilitate motor training, existing interfaces are often bulky and do not always ensure post-training skill ...
