Skilled sensorimotor interactions with the world result from a series of decision-making
processes that determine, on the basis of information extracted during the unfolding …

Movements of the eyes assist vision and support hand and body movements in a
cooperative way. Despite their strong functional coupling, different types of movements are …

Highlights•The influence of sensory feedback on motor output is subject to constant
modulation.•Sensory gain control comes in many forms and serves diverse functions across …

Successful motor performance relies on our ability to adapt to changes in the environment
by learning novel map**s between motor commands and sensory outcomes. Such …

Muscle responses to mechanical disturbances exhibit two distinct phases: a response
starting at~ 20 ms that is fairly stereotyped, and a response starting at~ 60 ms modulated by …

The separation of distinct motor memories by contextual cues is a well known and well
studied phenomenon of feedforward human motor control. However, there is no clear …

During goal-directed reaching, people typically direct their gaze to the target before the start
of the hand movement and maintain fixation until the hand arrives. This gaze strategy …

Visuomotor feedback responses vary in intensity throughout a reach, commonly explained
by optimal control. Here, we show that the optimal control for a range of movements with the …

A common problem in motor control concerns how to generate patterns of muscle activity
when there are redundant solutions to attain a behavioral goal. Optimal feedback control is a …
