Background. Mirror visual feedback (MVF), a phenomenon where movement of one limb is perceived as movement of the other limb, has the capacity to alleviate phantom limb pain or promote motor recovery of the upper limbs after stroke. The tool has rece... Read More about Reflections on mirror therapy: A systematic review of the effect of mirror visual feedback on the brain.

Movement speed is biased by prior experience. (2014)
Journal Article
(2014). Movement speed is biased by prior experience. Journal of Neurophysiology, 128 - 134. https://doi.org/10.1152/jn.00522.2013

How does the motor system choose the speed for any given movement? Many current models assume a process that finds the optimal balance between the costs of moving fast and the rewards of achieving the goal. Here, we show that such models also need to...
