Internship or Master Thesis: Motor fatigability and Reward
Motor fatigability refers to the decline in motor performance that occurs when movements are executed repeatedly over an extended period. It is a prominent symptom associated with several neurological conditions, including Parkinson's disease and multiple sclerosis. Our team recently demonstrated that reward can reduce motor fatigability in healthy participants, and we now aim to investigate whether this performance-enhancing effect scales with reward magnitude and how it is influenced by different fatigue states.
