Comparing information about arm movement direction in single channels of local and epicortical field potentials from monkey and human motor cortex

C Mehring, MP Nawrot, SC de Oliveira, E Vaadia… - Journal of Physiology …, 2004 - Elsevier
Cortical field potentials have been used for decades in neurophysiological studies to probe
spatio-temporal activity patterns of local populations of neurons. Recently, however, interest …

A Bayesian approach for characterizing direction tuning curves in the supplementary motor area of behaving monkeys

H Taubman, E Vaadia, R Paz… - Journal of …, 2013 - journals.physiology.org
Neural responses are commonly studied in terms of “tuning curves,” characterizing changes
in neuronal response as a function of a continuous stimulus parameter. In the motor system …

Role of the precentral cortex in adapting behavior to different mechanical environments

AG Richardson - 2007 - dspace.mit.edu
We routinely produce movements under different mechanical contexts. All interactions with
the physical environment, such as swinging a hammer or lifting a carton of milk, alter the …
