This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact

Prendo la penna sul tavolo. Il mio sistema motorio si attiva. Osservo il mio bambino compiere lo stesso atto motorio. Nonostante stia solo osservando mio figlio, il mio sistema motorio rientra in gioco. La scoperta che la sola osservazione dell’azione attivi una serie di neuroni nel nostro cervello è stata recentemente dimostrata da un gruppo di neuroscienziati italiani coordinato da Giacomo Rizzolatti. Questo nuovo sapere ha rivoluzionato il modo di concepire il sistema motorio, stimolando la ricerca clinica, promovendo strategie di intervento terapeutico che si fondano sull’osservazione e sull’immaginazione dell’azione, e gettando le basi per migliorare la didattica sportiva. Neuroscienze dell’attività motoria si rivolge a studenti di scienze motorie e a tutti gli operatori nel campo delle discipline motorie, sportive e riabilitative, con la finalità di raccontare il “nuovo sistema motorio” e chiarire come l’attività motoria non sia un semplice movimento governato dai muscoli ma il risultato dell’interazione di più processi neurali.
