Scientists have developed a computer-based model that may explain how nerve cells become damaged in ALS, and how best to time ...

A September review in the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders examined 25 studies comparing motor skills in ...

Inside neurons, motor proteins haul precious cargo, moving essential goods along thread-like roadways called microtubule tracks. Inside neurons, motor proteins haul precious cargo, moving essential ...

Neurons deep in the brain not only help to initiate movement—they also actively suppress it, and with astonishing precision. This is the conclusion of a new study by researchers at the University of ...

Within the brain’s frontal lobe lies the primary motor cortex, a sliver of neurons that coordinates movement. Beginning in the 1930s, scientists developed a map of this brain region called a ...

The terms mobility and flexibility are often used interchangeably in fitness conversations, yet they represent distinctly different aspects of physical capability with unique implications for movement ...

If you have upper motor neuron lesions, you have damage to certain nerve cells that help you move. Medicines and therapy can help control symptoms like muscle spasms and help you walk and talk more ...
