Motor Adaptation

At the NCM Meeting 2021 I presented results from our ultra-high field MR study of GABA in the primary motor cortex (M1). My presentation was supported by a scholarship from the NCM Society.

At the Dartmouth fMRI Brownbag Series, I was invited to present my PhD work, in which I used multimodal imaging to elucidate the role of GABA in human motor adaptation.

M1 GABA relates to functional connectivity changes and retention in visuomotor adaptation

Interacting with our ever-changing physical environment requires continual recalibration of the motor system. One mechanism by which this occurs is motor adaptation. Understanding how motor adaptation is implemented by the human brain, how different …
