This project seeks to discover why practicing a task with one limb can improve performance with the corresponding limb (which does no physical work) on the opposite side of the body. Identifying the changes in the brain that cause acquisition of skill without direct training is crucial to determine whether the effect might be exploited to improve rehabilitation outcomes for movement disorders that chiefly affect one side of the body (e.g. after a stroke). The research will provide basic information that might lead to new treatment approaches that help to minimize the social cost of the persistent and severe movement difficulties experienced by many patients after neurological injury.

这个项目旨在发现为什么用一个肢体练习一项任务可以提高另一个肢体（不做体力劳动）的表现。识别在没有直接训练的情况下导致技能习得的大脑变化，对于确定是否可以利用这种效果来改善主要影响一侧身体的运动障碍（例如中风后）的康复结果至关重要。这项研究将提供基础信息，可能会导致新的治疗方法，帮助最大限度地减少许多神经损伤后患者经历的持续和严重的运动困难的社会成本。
