    • Chronic Stroke Survivors Improve Reaching Accuracy by Reducing Movement Variability at the Trained Movement Speed 

      Hammerbeck, Ulrike; Yousif, Nada; Hoad, Damon; Greenwood, Richard; Diedrichsen, Jörn; Rothwell, John C (2017-06-01)
      BACKGROUND: Recovery from stroke is often said to have "plateaued" after 6 to 12 months. Yet training can still improve performance even in the chronic phase. Here we investigate the biomechanics of accuracy improvements ...

    • Movement speed is biased by prior experience 

      Hammerbeck, Ulrike; Yousif, Nada; Greenwood, Richard; Rothwell, John C; Diedrichsen, Jörn (2014-01-01)
      How does the motor system choose the speed for any given movement? Many current models assume a process that finds the optimal balance between the costs of moving fast and the rewards of achieving the goal. Here, we show ...
