Rhythmic movements such as locomotion are produced by oscillatory circuits in the central nervous system. Work in fruitflies shows that the neural circuitry for such movements develops without ...

Rhythmic movement disorder can display in one or multiple types of repeated movements. Head banging is where the child violently strikes their head against a part of the bed or a wall or cot bars.

Scientists at Hokkaido University and Hiroshima University have found that green brittle stars with five arms show a different "pumping" movement pattern than those with six arms. Using a ...

The LIMBS Lab at Johns Hopkins University (PI: Prof. Noah Cowan) is recruiting participants for studies to better understand performance and learning in tasks that involve rhythmic movement. We are ...

Rhythmic movement disorder (RMD), a rare sleep-related motor disorder, is associated with disturbed nighttime sleep and sleep continuity in children and adults, according to study results ...

Central Pattern Generators (CPGs) are groups of neurons that produce rhythmic patterned outputs, even when they receive non-rhythmic input. CPGs do not need sensory feedback to generate rhythmic ...

Students in this research opportunity will help research and write a literature review on the entraining effects of rhythmic movement in human communication contexts. They will also help design a ...

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 11 percent of children ages 11-17 are living with ADHD. While medicine is the most widely accepted treatment method, it's far ...
