The Differences in Sensorimotor Rhythm Power During Performing In-Phase and Anti-Phase Patterns in Bimanual Coordination

Purpose: The sensorimotor cortex oscillations (frequency ranging between 12 and 15 Hz), commonly known as Sensorimotor Rhythm (SMR) has previously displayed a promising link between the performance of the visuomotor related to skill execution and part of psychology that is adaptive (e.g. the process linked attention which is automatic). This study examined the extent of SMR power in the executi...

Electrophysiological and morphological properties of cell types in the chick neostriatum caudolaterale.

The neostriatum caudolaterale, in the chick also referred to as dorsocaudal neostriatal complex, is a polymodal associative area in the forebrain of birds that is involved in sensorimotor integration and memory processes. We have used whole-cell patch-clamp recordings in chick brain slices to characterize the principal cell types of the neostriatum caudolaterale. Electrophysiological properties...

γ-band oscillations in fronto-central areas during performance of a sensorimotor integration task: a qEEG coherence study.

This study aimed to elucidate electrophysiological and cortical mechanisms involved in anticipatory actions when 23 healthy right-handed subjects had to catch a free falling object by qEEG γ-band (30-100 Hz). It is involved in cognitive processes, memory, spatial/temporal and proprioceptive factors. Our hypothesis is that an increase in γ coherence in frontal areas will be observed during momen...

Adult age-dependent differences in resting-state connectivity within and between visual-attention and sensorimotor networks

Healthy aging is accompanied by structural and functional changes in the brain, among which a loss of neural specificity (i.e., dedifferentiation) is one of the most consistent findings. Little is known, however, about changes in interregional integration underlying a dedifferentiation across different functional systems. In a large sample (n = 399) of healthy adults aged from 18 to 85 years, w...
