Quantitative evaluation of human cerebellum-dependent motor learning through prism adaptation of hand-reaching movement.

The cerebellum plays important roles in motor coordination and learning. However, motor learning has not been quantitatively evaluated clinically. It thus remains unclear how motor learning is influenced by cerebellar diseases or aging, and is related with incoordination. Here, we present a new appl...
