The sensorimotor system is a product of evolution, development, learning and adaptation—
which work on different time scales to improve behavioral performance. Consequently, many …

The article offers a way to unite three recent developments in the field of motor control and
coordination:(1) The notion of synergies is introduced based on the principle of motor …

The emulation theory of representation is developed and explored as a framework that can
revealingly synthesize a wide variety of representational functions of the brain. The …

Synergy discusses a general problem in biology: The lack of an adequate language for
formulating biologically specific problems. Written for an inquisitive reader who is not …

While most upper limb training interventions in neurological rehabilitation are based on
established principles of motor learning and neural plasticity, recovery potential may be …

The human hand has so many degrees of freedom that it may seem impossible to control. A
potential solution to this problem is “synergy control” which combines dimensionality …

We propose a new model of motor learning to explain the exceptional dexterity and rapid
adaptation to change, which characterize human motor control. It is based on the brain …

Dr. Anatol G. Feldman is one of the world's foremost neuroscientists in the area of motor
control. His work has had a strong and sustained influence in behavioral neuroscience since …

Equilibrium maintenance during standing in humans was investigated with a 3-joint (ankle,
knee and hip) sagittal model of body movement. The experimental paradigm consisted of …

We revisit the concept of synergy based on the recently translated classical book by Nikolai
Bernstein (On the construction of movements, Medgiz, Moscow 1947; Latash, Bernstein's …
