Neural dynamics and information representation in microcircuits of motor cortex
The brain has to analyze and respond to external events that can change rapidly from time to time, suggesting that information processing by the brain may be essentially dynamic rather than static. The dynamical features of neural computation are of significant importance in motor cortex that governs the process of movement generation and learning. In this paper, we discuss these features based...
متن کاملNonparametric Representation of Neural Activity in Motor Cortex
It is well accepted that neural activity in motor cortex is correlated to hand motion, previous studies of cosine tuning curve (Georgopoulos et al.. 1982) and a modified version (Moran and Schwartz. 1999) are examples at revealing such relationships. Here by analyzing multi-electrode recordings of neural activity and simultaneously recorded hand motion during a continuous tracking task. we intr...
متن کاملPostnatal development of the motor representation in primary motor cortex.
The purpose of this study was to examine when the muscles and joints of the forelimb become represented in primary motor cortex (M1) during postnatal life and how local representation patterns change. We examined these questions in cats that were anesthetized (45-90 days, n = 14; adults, n = 3) and awake (n = 4; 52-86 days). We used intracortical microstimulation (45 ms duration train, 330 Hz, ...
متن کاملTransient Neural Plasticity in Human Motor Cortex
INTRODUCTION: Brain’s plasticity forms the basis of many of our daily functions including memory and learning. It is then intuitive to speculate that certain changes have occurred to the brain comparing before and after the training/learning. However, the exact neuronal processes that are altered are poorly understood, especially for human studies in which available tools are limited. Recent st...
متن کاملHandedness and asymmetry of hand representation in human motor cortex.
The cortical representation of five simple hand and finger movements in the human motor cortex was determined in left- and right-handed people with whole-head magnetoencephalography. Different movements were found to be represented by spatially segregated dipolar sources in primary motor cortex. The spatial arrangement of neuronal sources for digit and wrist movements was nonsomatotopic and var...
