Recovery of motor behaviour is, for a large part, the complex reintegration of sensory processes and motor output against the background of a decreasing cognitive involvement. Therefore, the measurement of motor output under simple and unperturbed conditions, isolated from these processes, reflects only a minor part of the recovery of skill. It is argued that there is an urgent need for procedures aimed at the objective study of behavioural recovery across time. Until now, these procedures have been lacking. This chapter provides a modest contribution to the development of these procedures.

Not fleeting but lasting: Limited influence of aging on implicit adaptative motor learning and its short-term retention.

In motor adaptation, learning is thought to rely on a combination of several processes. Two of these are implicit learning (incidental updating of the movement due to sensory prediction error) and explicit learning (intentional adjustment to reduce target error). The explicit component is thought to be fast adapting, while the implicit one is slow.

Brachial plexus root avulsion (BPRA) is often caused by road collisions, leading to total loss of motor function in the upper limb. At present, effective treatment options remain limited. Edaravone (EDA), a substance that eliminates free radicals, exhibits numerous biological properties, including neuroprotective, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Recent advancements in tissue engineering have promoted the development of nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) that significantly enhance peripheral nerve injury treatment, improving outcomes and recovery rates. However, utilising tailored biomimetic three-dimensional (3D) topological porous structures combined with multiple bio-effect neurotrophic factors to create environments similar to neural tissues, regulate local immune responses, and develop a supportive microenvironment to promote peripheral nerve regeneration and repair poses significant challenges. Herein, a biomimetic extracellular matrix (ECM) NGC featuring an interconnected 3D porous network and sustained delivery of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is designed using multi-functional gelatine microcapsules (GMs).

Electronic address:
Acute peripheral vestibular dysfunction is associated with a variety of postural and balance disturbances. Vestibular rehabilitation training (VRT) is widely acknowledged as an effective intervention for promoting vestibular compensation. Nevertheless, the broader implementation of early VRT is hindered by an incomplete understanding of its neurobiological mechanisms.
