Journal article Nat Neurosci · March 2026 The coordination of forelimb and orofacial movements to compose an ethological reach-to-consume behavior likely involves neural communication across brain regions. Leveraging wide-field imaging and photoinhibition to survey across the cortex, we identified ... Full text Link to item Cite

Motor Cortical Output Integrates Distorted Proprioceptive Feedback.

Preprint · November 13, 2025 Proprioceptive feedback from muscles is essential for continuous monitoring and precise control of limb movement, yet how such peripheral feedback is integrated into ongoing descending motor cortical dynamics remains largely unclear. Here we used precisely ... Full text Link to item Cite

Increased sensorimotor and superior parietal activation correlate with reduced writing dysfluency in writer's cramp dystonia.

Preprint · March 21, 2025 Writer's cramp (WC) dystonia is a disabling brain disorder characterized by abnormal postures during writing tasks. Although abnormalities were identified in the sensorimotor, parietal, basal ganglia, and cerebellum, the network-level interactions between ... Full text Link to item Cite
