Effects of Aging on Cortical Excitability During Motor Learning

VA Office of Research and Development·interventional·Posted Nov 23, 2018·Updated Apr 3, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Aerobic Exercise and Stretching and Balance Training for Aging. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The objective of the current proposal is to identify 1) how aging-related changes in GABAergic cortical inhibition affect motor performance, and 2) how aerobic exercise may improve inhibitory function and facilitate motor learning.
