Emergence of Motor Circuit Activity

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
In the developing nervous system, ordered neuronal activity patterns can occur even in the absence of sensory input and to investigate how these arise, we have used the model system of the embryonic chicken spinal motor circuit, focusing on motor neurons of the lateral motor column (LMC).

“Fitness and Fatness” in Children and Adolescents: An Italian Cross-Sectional Study

open access: yesChildren, 2021
Children with obesity tend to have lower level of physical activity compared to non-obese peers. In fact, sedentary behaviors are prevalent in obese children causing difficulties to perform motor tasks and engaging in sport activities. This, in turn, has

Motor-cortical activity in tetraplegics [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
It may eventually be feasible to reconstruct voluntary motor activity in the paralysed. Paralysed patients may benefit from the development of an implantable brain–computer interface device that can bypass damaged motor pathways1,2,3. But it is unclear whether chronically de-efferented areas will still be sufficiently excitable to respond to motor ...
