Back to topEnhancing Performance for Action and Perception: Multisensory Integration, Neuroplasticity and Neuroprosthetics, Part II Volume 192 (Progress in Brain Research #192) (Hardcover)
Description
This volume of Progess in Brain Research follows on from the 32nd International Symposium of the Groupe de recherche sur le syst me nerveux central (GRSNC), May 2010, and aims to provide an overview of the various neural mechanisms that contribute to learning new motor and sensory skills, and to adapting to changed circumstances, including the use of devices and implants to substitute for lost sensory or motor abilities (brain machine interfaces). The focus is on recent developments covering five major themes:
- Mechanisms to improve motor performance
- Neuro-rehabilitation of motor function
- Mechanisms to enhance sensory perception
- Cross modal interationc for enhancing sensorimotor performance
- Assistive technologies to enhance sensorimotor performance
This volume focuses on the translation of scientific knowledge into applications and strategies that can help restore lost function following injury or disease including assistive neuroprosthetic technologies to enhance sensorimotor performance and neurorehabilitation.
