Nature Human Behaviour, Published online: 19 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41562-026-02468-7 Ageing impairs strategic re-aiming but enhances implicit recalibration during sensorimotor learning. The strategic deficit probably reflects reduced memory caching, whereas the implicit enhancement is linked to altered multisensory integration.
