This study investigates how spinal interneurons encode static hindlimb posture in cats by analyzing neuronal activity during robotic limb positioning.

This study investigates CNS adaptation to long-term musculoskeletal changes in non-human primates, revealing a two-phase adaptation process with distinct time constants.

This study identifies spinal excitatory circuits critical for skilled hand movements in primates, showing pre-determined muscle activation patterns during motor planning.

This study uses Bayesian estimation with phase oscillator models to analyze leg-trunk coordination during walking, finding that neither leg-trunk nor interleg coordination is strictly controlled.
