A model of the cerebellum generates gait adaptations in a reflex-based neuromusculoskeletal model during split-belt walking

This paper introduces a cerebellum model that enables gait adaptation in a reflex-based neuromusculoskeletal model during split-belt walking, showing exponential reduction in step length asymmetry.

REECAP: Contrastive learning of retinal aging reveals genetic loci linking morphology to eye disease

REECAP uses contrastive learning to link retinal aging patterns with genetic loci associated with eye diseases, identifying 178 loci including 27 linked to age-related eye diseases.

Does reduced reactivity explain altered postural control in Parkinson's disease? A predictive simulation study.

This study uses simulations to investigate if reduced reactivity in Parkinson's disease explains postural instability and increased muscle tone, finding that reduced reactivity increases muscle activation but not sway parameters.

A sensorimotor enhanced neuromusculoskeletal model for simulating postural control of upright standing

This paper introduces a neuromusculoskeletal model for simulating upright standing postural control using sensor feedback, showing it can replicate physiological joint movements and reactive balance behavior.

Sensing the Full Dynamics of the Human Hand with a Neural Interface and Deep Learning

This paper develops a deep learning method to predict hand kinematics and forces from EMG signals, showing accurate prediction of unseen movements and learned anatomical neural features.

Common synaptic inputs are not distributed homogeneously among the motor neurons that innervate synergistic muscles

The study identifies two neural modules underlying motor unit discharge rates in synergistic muscles, showing heterogeneous distribution of common synaptic inputs among motor neurons.

Heart rate variability predicts decline in sensorimotor rhythm control

This study shows that heart rate variability predicts decline in BCI control performance during voluntary sensorimotor rhythm control in healthy participants.
