Neural Dynamics of Saccadic and Smooth Pursuit Eye Movement Coordination during Visual Tracking of Unpredictably Moving Targets [PDF]
How does the brain use eye movements to track objects that move in unpredictable directions and speeds? Saccadic eye movements rapidly foveate peripheral visual or auditory targets and smooth pursuit eye movements keep the fovea pointed toward an ...

Saccade learning with concurrent cortical and subcortical basal ganglia loops [PDF]
The Basal Ganglia is a central structure involved in multiple cortical and subcortical loops. Some of these loops are believed to be responsible for saccade target selection.

When R‐Loops Go Awry: Genome Instability and Neurological Diseases
DNA normally exists as a double helix formed by two complementary strands. During gene transcription, however, one strand of DNA can bind to RNA, causing the other DNA strand to be displaced. This creates a structure called an R‐loop. R‐loops play important roles in normal cellular processes such as gene expression, DNA replication, and transcription ...

Neural Representations for Sensory-Motor Control I: Head-Centered 3-D Target Positions from Opponent Eye Commands [PDF]
This article describes how corollary discharges from outflow eye movement commands can be transformed by two stages of opponent neural processing into a head-centered representation of 3-D target position.

A Case of Progressive Stroke on Posterior Circulation with Transient Bilateral Oculomotor Palsy
Infarction located in the midbrain and pons presents various ophthalmic symptoms, because of the damage of the nuclei that control the movement of internal and external ocular and palpebral muscles.

Using humanoid robots to study human behavior [PDF]
Our understanding of human behavior advances as our humanoid robotics work progresses-and vice versa. This team's work focuses on trajectory formation and planning, learning from demonstration, oculomotor control and interactive behaviors.

Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles
Background : Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles (CFEOM) describes a group of rare congenital eye movement disorders that result from the dysfunction of all or part of the oculomotor (CN 3) and the trochlear (CN 4) nerves, and/or the muscles ...

Visuomotor delays when hitting running spiders. [PDF]
In general, information about the environment (for instance a target) is not instantaneously available for the nervous system. A minimal delay for visual information to affect the movement of the hand is about 110 ms. However, if the movement of a target
