David A.E. Bolton, Sarah E. Schwartz, Manhoud Mansour, Garrett Rydalch, et al.

Merely viewing objects within reachable space can activate motor cortical networks and potentiate movement. This holds potential value for smooth ...

Forecast or Fall: Prediction's Importance to Postural Control

Frontiers in Neurology (2018)

Chris J. Dakin and David A.E. Bolton

To interact successfully with an uncertain environment, organisms must be able to respond to both unanticipated and anticipated events. For ...
