Cortical contribution to visuomotor coordination in locomotion and reaching
T Drew, N Fortier-Lebel, T Nakajima - Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2023 - Elsevier
One of the hallmarks of mammals is their ability to make precise visually guided limb
movements to attain objects. This is best exemplified by the reach and grasp movements of …

Integrated neural dynamics of sensorimotor decisions and actions
Recent theoretical models suggest that deciding about actions and executing them are not
implemented by completely distinct neural mechanisms but are instead two modes of an …

Motor cortex signals for each arm are mixed across hemispheres and neurons yet partitioned within the population response
KC Ames, MM Churchland - Elife, 2019 - elifesciences.org
Motor cortex (M1) has lateralized outputs, yet neurons can be active during movements of
either arm. What is the nature and role of activity across the two hemispheres? We recorded …

Hierarchical action encoding within the human brain
Humans are able to interact with objects with extreme flexibility. To achieve this ability, the
brain does not only control specific muscular patterns, but it also needs to represent the …

Lateralization of short-term memory in the frontal cortex
Despite essentially symmetric structures in mammalian brains, the left and right
hemispheres do not contribute equally to certain cognitive functions. How both hemispheres …

[HTML][HTML] Disentangling human grasping type from the object's intrinsic properties using low-frequency EEG signals
AI Sburlea, M Wilding, GR Müller-Putz - Neuroimage: Reports, 2021 - Elsevier
Grasping movements are known to activate the fronto-parietal brain networks both in human
and non-human primates. However, it is unclear if these activations represent properties of …
