Cortical representation of bimanual movements.
It is well established that the discharge of neurons in primate motor cortex is tuned to the movement direction of the contralateral arm. Interestingly, it has been found that these neurons exhibit a directional tuning to the ipsilateral arm as well and that the preferred directions to both arms tend to be similar. A recent study showed that motor cortex cells are also directionally selective t...
متن کاملCortical representation of ipsilateral arm movements in monkey and man.
A fundamental organizational principle of the primate motor system is cortical control of contralateral limb movements. Motor areas also appear to play a role in the control of ipsilateral limb movements. Several studies in monkeys have shown that individual neurons in primary motor cortex (M1) may represent, on average, the direction of movements of the ipsilateral arm. Given the increasing bo...
متن کاملPrimary and supplementary cortex in bimanual movements: a study of cortical physiology
The study of bimanual coordination is an area of intense recent research. This contrasts with a relative lack of interest in bimanual coordination – particularly in the area of cortical physiology – over the preceding years. This increased recent interest has been fueled in part by new theoretical approaches and recording techniques that place an emphasis on the role of neuronal interactions in...
