A computational model mechanistically links spinal circuit reorganization to recovered locomotion after incomplete spinal cord injury.

This valuable study reveals the pro-locomotor effects of activating a deep brain region containing diverse range of neurons in both healthy and Parkinson's disease mouse models. While the findings are ...

We investigated changes in locomotor activity, passive avoidance task performance, and hippocampal CA1 neurons induced by cerebral ischemia in Mongolian gerbils to examine the relation between these ...

American psychologist Calvin S. Hall established the open field test (OFT) in 1932 to assess animal emotionality. 1 The OFT has evolved since then with modern technology, and its capacity to assess ...

Editor's note: Every year, hundreds of undergraduates at the University of Delaware pursue research under the guidance of a faculty mentor. Such experiences provided by UD — a nationally recognized ...

Summary: A new study reveals that quick learners of motor skills have distinct brain activity patterns. Using brain-monitoring electrodes, they found that visual processing plays a crucial role in ...

Researchers at the University of Cologne discovered that stick insects’ depressor muscle neurons are uniquely excited in a rhythmic pattern, challenging the belief that all motor neurons are uniformly ...

Summary: Researchers made a breakthrough in understanding how stick insects control their leg muscles during walking, challenging previous assumptions about motor neuron activation. Their study ...

Abstract: Recognition of human locomotor activities is crucial for monitoring the motion patterns. Current studies for human locomotor activities recognition focused on detecting basic motion patterns ...
