Abstract:Interhemispheric inhibition is an inhibitory function of the brain that enables complex human locomotion and plays an important role in motor control. Traditionally, interhemispheric inhibition has been assessed using transcranial magnetic stimulation, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and electroencephalography. However, motor overflow and bimanual coordinated movements have recently attracted attention as behavioral indices involving interhemispheric inhibition. Motor overflow is defined as the presence… Show more
