Sensory modality of initiation cues modulates action goal-relevant neural representations
Abstract. The ability to produce goal-directed movement relies on the integration of diverse sensory cues which contribute to goal subtasks, such as trajectory planning and initiation. To achieve thes...

A traffic light goes green. Maybe there’s also a honk. Does that change how your brain plans to move?🚦🔊
We show that neural representations of action goals vary depending on the sensory modality of the initiation cues, even when the movement stays the same.🧠

Temporal Dynamics of Sensorimotor Integration for Non-Visual Target Information During Movement Preparation and Online Control
Online movement variability in non-visual (auditory and proprioceptive) target reaching is modality-dependent. This study investigated whether such modality-specific effects emerge during movement pre...

What happens to motor adaptation—the way we correct errors with feedback—when feedback is indirect, like a number on a screen?
In our new paper in @royalsociety.org, we found that indirect feedback hinders learning compared to sensory feedback.
