Project B04

Motor control under uncertainty in the healthy human brain

Project B04 analyses motor network changes depending on the predictability/uncertainty of an intended motor response in younger and older volunteers. Using a combination of computational modelling of behaviour, fMRI, and novel connectivity models, this project will focus on how uncertainty about upcoming motor responses is estimated, how this affects the activity of the brain’s motor control networks, and how simulated lesions may cause disruption of flexible motor behaviour.
