Neuronal Rhythms in Movement Unit (Marylka Yoe Uusisaari)

Virtually all animal and human behaviour is ultimately enacted through motion, brought about by deliberate and precise muscle activity coordinated across the entire body. Indeed, even simple behaviours and movements (such as raising a glass or sitting down) involve orchestrated adjustments in muscle activities in multitude of kinematic elements of the body. The transformation of abstract and distributed patterns of neural activity in the various planning-related brain structures into these concrete and timely actions requires a reliable temporal code to be used as a framework for behaviour.
