This study focuses on the medial parietal cortex in primates to understand how sensory information guides arm movements. By analyzing brain activity and anatomy, the project aims to uncover the mechanisms behind skilled reaching, which could inform the development of assistive technologies like artificial limbs.
Like other primates, we use our hands extensively to explore and interact with objects in the environment, guided by sensory information.
One of the brain regions known to be involved in the direction of arm movements is the medial parietal cortex, which is the focus of the present study.
Stroke affecting this part of the brain causes disability, as people become unable to reach accurately to objects of interest.
Revealing the brain circuitry responsible for skilled arm movements can have profou…
