Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Neuromodulation has been applied as the effective rehabilitation of motor deficits. Here, we investigate the effect of neuromodulation upon development of sporting-skills training. Novice table-tennis players repeatedly practiced their forehand, aiming at a target on the table, after stimulation of the hand-and-arm motor area of the cortex via transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). Accuracy improved significantly after tDCS. Therefore, we suggest that neuromodulation facilitates sporting-skills training.
