But even with the latest and greatest tracking and behavioral quantification, we couldn’t find effects of lesioning DLS 😶🌫️. This is a big contrast to the huge effect in the task. This suggests DLS is not an essential part of the motor control machinery, but specializing in shaping learned behaviors.

We first examined DLS function by taking it away (via lesion).
We already know DLS impacts learned movements – but what about innate ones?
Prior work has implicated DLS, but to know for sure, we needed to track these behaviors in detail. And thanks to advances in tracking, this is now easy-peasy!
