Emerging ideas and tools to study the emergent properties of the cortical neural circuits for voluntary motor control in non-human primates

2019-05-29

Abstract excerpt

For years, neurophysiological studies of the cerebral cortical mechanisms of voluntary motor control were limited to single-electrode recordings of the activity of one or a few neurons at a time. This approach was supported by the widely accepted belief that single neurons were the fundamental computational units of the brain (the “neuron doctrine”). Experiments were guided by motor-control models that proposed th...
