Structural Correlates of Skilled Performance on a Motor Sequence Task

Structural Correlates of Skilled Performance on a Motor Sequence Task

The brain regions functionally engaged in motor sequence performance are well established, but the structural characteristics of these regions and the fibre pathways involved have been less well studied. In addition, relatively few studies have combined multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and...
