Abstract
Posture in the brain
Our understanding of the neural basis of motor control originates in studies of eye, hand, and arm movements in primates. Mimica
et al.
investigated neuronal representations of body postures in the posterior parietal and frontal motor cortices with three-dimensional tracking of freely moving rodents (see the Perspective by Chen). Both brain regions represented posture rather than movements and self-motion. Decoding the activity of neurons in the two regions accurately predicted an animal's posture.
