Summary

This study looked at how different parts of the brain help us sense where our limbs are in space and learn new hand movements. Researchers tested 118 healthy adults using a robot to measure their sense of position and a maze-tracing task to track motor skill learning. The goal is to use this knowledge to design better rehabilitation programs for people with movement problems.
