NCT ID NCT04784832
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how imagining movements (mental training) helps healthy adults learn physical skills like finger sequences or arm movements. Researchers use brain stimulation and robotic tools to measure changes in brain activity and performance. The goal is to understand the brain mechanisms behind motor learning, which could one day improve rehabilitation therapies.
