Elvers M, Beck S, Fotinos A, Ziegler M, Gawaz M
Cardiovasc Res . 2012 Feb; 94(3):526-36. PMID: 22298643
Aims: Platelet adhesion and aggregation is essential for haemostasis and thrombosis. Cytoskeletal reorganization of activated platelets plays a crucial role in these processes and implies activation of Rho GTPases. Rho...

Houdayer E, Beck S, Karabanov A, Poston B, Hallett M
Eur J Neurosci . 2012 Feb; 35(3):478-85. PMID: 22288483
A major feature of focal hand dystonia (FHD) pathophysiology is the loss of inhibition. One inhibitory process, surround inhibition, for which the cortical mechanisms are still unknown, is abnormal in...

Beck S, Hallett M
Exp Brain Res . 2011 Mar; 210(2):165-72. PMID: 21424259
Surround inhibition is a physiological mechanism to focus neuronal activity in the central nervous system. This so-called center-surround organization is well known in sensory systems, where central signals are facilitated...

Beck S, Houdayer E, Pirio Richardson S, Hallett M
Brain Stimul . 2010 Jul; 2(4):208-14. PMID: 20633420
Background: The left dorsal premotor cortex (PMd) plays an important role in movement selection and is abnormally activated in imaging studies in patients with right-sided focal hand dystonia (FHD). Objective:...

Beck S, Pirio Richardson S, Shamim E, Dang N, Schubert M, Hallett M
J Neurosci . 2008 Oct; 28(41):10363-9. PMID: 18842895
In patients with focal hand dystonia (FHD), pathological overflow activation occurs in muscles not involved in the movement. Surround inhibition is a neural mechanism that can sharpen desired movement by...

Surges R, Beck S, Niesen W, Weiller C, Rijntjes M
J Neurol Sci . 2007 May; 260(1-2):261-4. PMID: 17512012
We report on a patient suffering from bilateral sudden blindness as initial symptom of Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE). A 37-year-old male alcoholic was admitted to a psychiatric clinic because of excessive...

Taube W, Schubert M, Gruber M, Beck S, Faist M, Gollhofer A
J Appl Physiol (1985) . 2006 Apr; 101(2):420-9. PMID: 16601305
The antigravity soleus muscle (Sol) is crucial for compensation of stance perturbation. A corticospinal contribution to the compensatory response of the Sol is under debate. The present study assessed spinal,...

Kammer T, Beck S
Exp Brain Res . 2002 Jul; 145(3):407-10. PMID: 12136391
Transcranial magnetic stimulation applied over the occipital pole is able to induce the perception of light flashes called phosphenes. For phosphene detection and threshold measurement subjects are usually blindfolded or...
