Inference of hand movements from local field potentials in monkey motor cortex

C Mehring, J Rickert, E Vaadia, SC de Oliveira… - Nature …, 2003 - nature.com

Encoding of movement fragments in the motor cortex

NG Hatsopoulos, Q Xu, Y Amit - Journal of Neuroscience, 2007 - Soc Neuroscience
Previous studies have suggested that complex movements can be elicited by electrical
stimulation of the motor cortex. Most recording studies in the motor cortex, however, have …

Temporal encoding of movement kinematics in the discharge of primate primary motor and premotor neurons

QG Fu, D Flament, JD Coltz… - Journal of …, 1995 - journals.physiology.org
