Abstract:
The classical mirror neuron theory of action understanding asserts that when we observe an action, the representations that are engaged for performing it, are automatically activated. In order to do gain information about the role of the simulation in action understanding a state dependent TMS experiment has been carried out. The fundamental idea is to adapt a neural population in the motor system and then testing the effects of this adaptation when participants categorize visually presented actions. The second aim of the present work is to find a paradigm, or a particular cognitive set, that

Abstract:
Motor pathways are activated not only during the obvious task of producing voluntary movement, but also during observation of actions performed by others. Execution and observation share a common pattern of activation, so that a subliminal "motor resonance" (MR) response is evoked, in primary motor cortex and spinal circuits, which reflects the specific motor program encoding the observed actions. There is growing evidence that MR is mediated by a parieto-frontal neural network, called the “Action Observation Network” (AON). While often described as an automatic and cognitively unmediated resp

Abstract:
The sensorimotor network receives a rich variety of somesthetic afferents and outputs considerable motor efferents, both of which drive experience-dependent plasticity in the system. It remains unclear to what extent subtle changes in somaesthesis and motor function extrinsic to the brain drive plasticity in the functional organisation and anatomy of the sensorimotor network. This thesis contains a series of multimodal MRI experiments to investigate how altered-use and disuse can induce plastic changes in the sensorimotor network of the human brain.

Embodied Cognition accounts propose that motor activation contributes to semantic representations in action language (Fischer & Zwaan, 2008). However, the nature of this activation remains largely unspecified: in particular, which processes result in relevant activation? Long-term motor experience (e.g., the comprehender’s dominant hand), short-term motor experience (e.g., the hand the comprehender has recently used), and action planning (e.g., the hand the comprehender is planning to use) are all potential candidates.

Abstract:
This PhD thesis investigated the role of the basal ganglia in memory and motor inhibition. Recent neuroimaging evidence suggests a supramodal network of inhibition involving the lateral prefrontal cortex. Here we examined whether this supramodal network also includes subcortical structures, such as the basal ganglia. Despite their well-established role in motor control, the basal ganglia are repeatedly activated but never interpreted during memory inhibition. We first used a series of meta-analyses to confirm the consistent involvement of the basal ganglia across studies using memory and motor

Abstract:
Les maladies du motoneurone (MNDs) et notamment la Sclérose Latérale Amyotrophique (SLA) et l’Amyotrophie Spinale liée aux mutations du gène SMN1 (SMA), sont caractérisées par une perte progressive des neurones moteurs au niveau de la moelle épinière. L’imagerie par résonance magnétique (IRM) est actuellement l’approche la plus performante pour quantifier la dégénérescence spinale. De plus, les explorations de neurophysiologie pourraient être des biomarqueurs sensibles de progression de la maladie. L’objectif de cette thèse a été d’associer l’IRM de la moelle épinière aux techniques d’évaluati

Abstract:
Die transkranielle Magnetstimulation (TMS) ist zu einer essentiellen Untersuchungsmethode der Neurowissenschaften geworden. Sie ermöglicht es, mittels eines kurzen, starken Magnetfeldes, Neuronen im Gehirn anzuregen und kurzfristig deren Aktivität zu modulieren. Diese Effekte sind allerdings nur bei Stimulation des motorischen Kortexes als motorisch evozierte Potentiale (MEP) an peripheren Muskeln direkt messbar. Hier lässt sich auch eine individuelle Reizschwelle (engl. motorthreshold, MT) bestimmen, die sich allerdings von Proband zu Proband stark unterscheidet. Bei Stimulation außerhalb des

Abstract:
Le but de ce travail de thèse était de contribuer à une meilleure compréhension des mécanismes par lesquels nous nous représentons nos propres actions et celles d'autrui. En nous situant notamment dans la perspective de la théorie idéomotrice, nous avons examiné ces questions tout d'abord dans le cadre de l'imitation. Nos résultats indiquent un effet de l'apprentissage idéomoteur sur l'imitation intentionnelle (Etude 1), confirmant la flexibilité des liens perception-action, et démontrant le rôle des associations réponse-effet dans l'imitation. Toutefois, les performances à une tâche d'imitati
