How do we cancel or modify movements?

这个合作项目旨在提高我们对动作是如何根据视觉线索快速取消或重新编程的理解。该项目利用创新的计算模型、非侵入性脑刺激和肌肉活动记录，旨在阐明我们的大脑如何预测不得不取消计划的行动的可能性，以及这种情况作为健康老龄化的功能如何变化。这些结果有望帮助设计模仿人脑功能的神经形态技术。产生的知识还可能为未来的研究提供信息，这些研究旨在维持老龄化劳动力的认知和运动功能，并治疗抑制控制受到损害的情况。

This collaborative project aims to improve our understanding of how movements are rapidly cancelled, or reprogrammed, based on visual cues. Using innovative computational models, non-invasive brain stimulation and recordings of muscle activity, the project aims to elucidate how our brains anticipate the possibility of having to cancel planned actions, and how this changes as a function of healthy ageing. The outcomes are expected to assist in the design of neuromorphic technologies that mimic human brain function. The generated knowledge may also inform future research aimed at maintaining cognitive and motor function in the ageing workforce and treating conditions in which inhibitory control is compromised.
