Topic: bimanual motor learning

Bimanual sequential skills, such as typing, are essential for our modern lives. However, how the brain learns bimanual sequential skills is largely unknown. Bimanual sequential skill requires two essential leanings: bimanual posture control and representing motor sequence. We conducted an fMRI study to investigate the neural basis of bimanual sequential skills like typing, resembled in our ordinary movement. Thirty-five healthy right-handed volunteers practiced visually cued bimanual serial reaction time tasks, including the “mirror” and more difficult “parallel” modes of repeating fixed seque
