Hypogravity reveals a proprioception-dependent mechanism for locomotor state expression

2026-06-05

Abstract excerpt

Animals must adapt locomotion to changing environmental conditions, but how the nervous system flexibly controls movement remains unclear. Gravity provides a powerful perturbation because it alters body loading, limb dynamics, and proprioceptive feedback. Apollo astronauts often skipped on the Moon, adopting an asymmetric gait rarely used on Earth, yet the sensorimotor basis of this behaviour is unknown. Here, by...
