Bimanual motor coordination in older adults is associated with increased functional brain connectivity--a graph-theoretical analysis.

In bimanual coordination, older and younger adults activate a common cerebral network but the elderly also have additional activation in a secondary network of brain areas to master task performance. It remains unclear whether the functional connectivity within these primary and secondary motor netw...
