Motor Learning After Cerebellar Damage: The Role of the Primary Motor Cortex (NCT05351255)
🔵 Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ⚙️ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Albert Einstein Healthcare Network
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study will determine (1) whether baseline inhibitory activity in the primary motor cortex can predict motor learning ability in individuals with cerebellar degeneration, and (2) whether modulating primary motor cortex activity with non-invasive brain stimulation alters motor learning ability in this population.
