Abstract:Among the patterns of motor cortical activity, those that directly drive muscles remain unresolved. Lesion studies have led to the hypothesis that motor cortex functions primarily to improve movement efficacy by enabling patterns of muscle activity that the rest of the motor system cannot achieve. Yet such studies weakly constrain when motor cortical output influences muscle activity in the unperturbed state. Analysis of motor cortical activity has consistently found, and imputed functional significance upon, … Show more
