Surround inhibition in the motor system can be detected during real-life tasks and is task specific rather than muscle specific. #openaccess https://t.co/I9iGPE6lab

Very proud of @CoreyWadsley for an awesome series of PhD experiments, culminating with this one - Global pause generates nonselective response inhibition during selective stopping https://t.co/iGkYzd5PVh
w/ great mentoring from @NieuwenhuysArne and John Cirillo

Excited to launch Ouvrai (#NCMVic23 poster Tues)! Open-source platform for remote behavioral research: VR, PCs & mobiles. Example of 3D visuomotor generalization from 10 remote VR users collected in <2 hrs! Get started/demos @ https://t.co/OM3dCZqg07 Hand tracking too! #Ouvrai

Ok this is big.

Web of Science just removed the MDPI flagship journal IJERPH from their lists. This means IJERPH has no more an Impact Factor.

Why is this big? What are the implications? 🧵

The size of Cyclone Gabrielle is clear in this video.

Since noon, we're recorded gusts of 150 - 160 km/h, and some stations in Gisborne have recorded rain rates of 15 - 30mm in a single hour.

Our open-source Selective Stopping Toolbox (SeleST) study is available in Experimental Brain Research!

Work w/ John Cirillo, @NieuwenhuysArne, and @MyPlasticBrain

Excited to see how it can be used! Summary thread below 🧵⤵️ (1/7)

@rmooney__ @HopkinsMedicine @Celnik_Lab @RehabHopkins Congratulations Ronan!!!

Great way to start the year! Our article is now out in #JNeurosci @SfNJournals

Here we demonstrate that stopping can be selective, but is unlikely to improve via proactive interhemispheric influences.

I can’t wait to mark this assignment next year!

Last year, we ran a new module in Motor Control @UniofExeter, with me, @GKRWilliams, and @FarrisDominic. Students had to prepare a short YouTube video on a topic of their choice. We got some really exceptional videos, but this one just blew me away https://t.co/GXKDpliEen

@LeoFurlanPhD @kate_hayward_ @dr_nickward @blamlab @laboyd47 Timing of both the MEP assessment (1 week) and predicted UL outcome category (3 months) are well defined and matter for PREP2 accuracy, which is quite high for MEP- in that context. https://t.co/4ioYOACkNI

In a new paper in Nature, scientists looked at candidates for reversing dysregulated gene expression in Alzheimer's disease and guess what outperformed all tested drugs? Exercise.

Check out our first pre-print below! Here we demonstrate that between-hand stopping can be selective with proactive cueing, but cue-related improvements are unlikely to reflect advance engagement of interhemispheric influences between primary motor cortices. Feedback welcome! 🚦
