Exoskeletons need to react faster than physiological responses to improve standing balance

ON Beck, MK Shepherd, R Rastogi, G Martino… - Science robotics, 2023 - science.org
Maintaining balance throughout daily activities is challenging because of the unstable
nature of the human body. For instance, a person's delayed reaction times limit their ability to …

Approaches to revealing the neural basis of muscle synergies: a review and a critique

VCK Cheung, K Seki - Journal of neurophysiology, 2021 - journals.physiology.org
The central nervous system (CNS) may produce coordinated motor outputs via the
combination of motor modules representable as muscle synergies. Identification of muscle …

Long-term training modifies the modular structure and organization of walking balance control

A Sawers, JL Allen, LH Ting - Journal of neurophysiology, 2015 - journals.physiology.org
How does long-term training affect the neural control of movements? Here we tested the
hypothesis that long-term training leading to skilled motor performance alters muscle …

Shared muscle synergies in human walking and cycling

FO Barroso, D Torricelli, JC Moreno… - Journal of …, 2014 - journals.physiology.org
The motor system may rely on a modular organization (muscle synergies activated in time)
to execute different tasks. We investigated the common control features of walking and …

Synergistic organization of neural inputs from spinal motor neurons to extrinsic and intrinsic hand muscles

S Tanzarella, S Muceli, M Santello… - Journal of …, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
