parietal cortex estimates body and limb position with respect to an object.•Allocentric and …

The motor cortex is a large frontal structure in the cerebral cortex of eutherian mammals. A
vast array of evidence implicates the motor cortex in the volitional control of motor output, but …

Blocking motor cortical output with lesions or pharmacological inactivation has identified
movements that require motor cortex. Yet, when and how motor cortex influences muscle …

Control of walking has been described by a tripartite model consisting of stepping,
equilibrium, and adaptability. This review focuses on walking adaptability, which is defined …

Motor cortex (M1) lesions result in motor impairments, yet how M1 contributes to the control
of movement remains controversial. To investigate the role of M1 in sensory guided motor …

A compact description of coordinated muscle activity is provided by the factorization of
electromyographic (EMG) signals. With the use of this approach, it has consistently been …

Objective: Our aim was to determine if walking speed affected human sensorimotor
electrocortical dynamics using mobile high-density electroencephalography (EEG) …

Neuronal activity in primary motor cortex (M1) correlates with behavioral state, but the
cellular mechanisms underpinning behavioral state-dependent modulation of M1 output …

Contrary to cats and primates, cortical contribution to hindlimb locomotor movements is not
critical in rats. However, the importance of the motor cortex to regain locomotion after …

In the last few years, significant progress has been made in the field of walk rehabilitation.
Motor cortex signals in bipedal monkeys have been interpreted to predict walk kinematics …
