Functional plasticity in the interposito-thalamo-cortical pathway during conditioning. Role of the interstimulus interval.

abstract：:Interlateral transfer of learning between the legs in body balance training is a topic of theoretical and practical interest, but it has been left untouched in previous research. In this investigation, we aimed to evaluate the magnitude and asymmetry of interlateral transfer of balance stability following the practice...
