Dissociation of Gravity and Limb Dynamics in Motor Control

2026-05-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Human movements remain accurate and stable despite changes in external forces, yet it is unclear how the nervous system separates and compensates for gravitational loads and intrinsic limb dynamics when generating motor commands. This question is difficult to address under terrestrial conditions, where these forces are inherently coupled. Here we dissociated gravitational acceleration f...
