Abstract:
Cortical Population Dynamics for Adaptive Locomotion and Grasping in the Mouse
The ability of mammals to move through complex environments and interact with objects requires coordinated patterns of activity across large populations of neurons in the motor cortex, cerebellum, and spinal cord. Our long-term goal is to measure and manipulate these patterns in behaving animals, identify the dynamical rules that generate them, and determine how they are used to flexibly control natural movement. In this seminar, I will describe our progress towards this goal in the laboratory mouse.
