Neurophysiological correlates of aging-related muscle weakness.
Muscle weakness associated with aging implicates central neural degeneration. However, role of the primary motor cortex (M1) is poorly understood, despite evidence that gains in strength in younger adults are associated with its adaptations. We investigated whether weakness of biceps brachii in aging analogously relates to processes in M1. We enrolled 20 young (22.6 ± 0.87 yr) and 28 old (74.79...

متن کاملFunctional and Neurophysiological correlates of Corticospinal Function in Human Aging
Acknowledgments First and farmost, I would like to thank my thesis supervisor Dr. François Tremblay for his time and guidance throughout my research project. Thanks to him I was not only able successfully complete my project, but also have the opportunity to develop as a researcher by participating at various conferences. I extend my gratitude to Sabah Master for her help in data collection as ...
متن کاملNeurophysiological correlates of age-related changes in working memory updating
Normal aging is associated with a gradual decline in executive functions such as set-shifting, inhibition, and updating, along with a progressive decline of neurotransmitter systems including the dopamine system. Modulation from the dopamine system is thought to be critical for the gating of information during working memory. Given the known relationships between executive aging, cognition, and...
متن کاملIntracranial Neurophysiological Correlates Related to the Processing of Faces.
Face perception and recognition is an intriguing ability, already present in neonates. Numerous studies in patients with brain lesions identified the temporo-occipital cortex as the crucial structure for this capacity. Analysis of electrical signals (EEG) inside the brain of patients implanted with intracranial electrodes for diagnostic purposes allows researchers to describe the temporal and s...
