Pairing voluntary movement and muscle-located electrical stimulation increases cortical excitability

Learning new motor skills has been correlated with increased cortical excitability. In this study, different location of electrical stimulation (ES), nerve or muscle, was paired with voluntary movement to investigate if ES paired with voluntary movement a) would increase the excitability of cortical...
