[HTML][HTML] Current principles of motor control, with special reference to vertebrate locomotion

S Grillner, A El Manira - Physiological reviews, 2019 - journals.physiology.org
The vertebrate control of locomotion involves all levels of the nervous system from cortex to
the spinal cord. Here, we aim to cover all main aspects of this complex behavior, from the …
