Brain knows how to stop thinking, start learning A new study suggests that letting go of executive areas of the brain speeds the learning of motor tasks, such as playing an instrument.

Exercise boosts motor skill learning via changes in brain's transmitters Researchers find switch in chemical messaging is key prelude to motor skill acquisition Date: May 4, 2020 Source ...

Students will study the principles and theories of motor control and their practical applications.

They observed rapid growth of structures that form connections (called synapses) between nerve cells in the motor cortex, the brain layer that controls muscle movements.

Spitzer and Li reported their findings in Nature Communications, in a paper titled, “ Exercise enhances motor skill learning by neurotransmitter switching in the adult midbrain.” It’s well ...
