Motor learning encompasses a wide range of phenomena, ranging from relatively low-level
mechanisms for maintaining calibration of our movements, to making high-level cognitive …

Following arm amputation the region that represented the missing hand in primary
somatosensory cortex (S1) becomes deprived of its primary input, resulting in changed …

Noninvasive behavioral tracking of animals during experiments is critical to many scientific
pursuits. Extracting the poses of animals without using markers is often essential to …

Quantifying behavior is crucial for many applications in neuroscience. Videography provides
easy methods for the observation and recording of animal behavior in diverse settings, yet …

Optogenetics allows manipulations of genetically and spatially defined neuronal populations
with excellent temporal control. However, neurons are coupled with other neurons over …

Little is known about the organizational and functional connectivity of the corticospinal (CS)
circuits that are essential for voluntary movement. Here, we map the connectivity between …

Integration of sensory and motor information is one-step, among others, that underlies the
successful production of goal-directed hand movements necessary for interacting with our …

The ability to control a behavioral task or stimulate neural activity based on animal behavior
in real-time is an important tool for experimental neuroscientists. Ideally, such tools are …

Long-term learning of language, mathematics, and motor skills likely requires cortical
plasticity, but behavior often requires much faster changes, sometimes even after single …

Stable and efficient locomotion requires the precise coordination of movement across the
limbs and body. Learned changes in interlimb coordination can be induced by exposure to a …
