    Motor cortex signals for each arm are mixed across hemispheres and neurons yet partitioned within the population response

    Katherine Cora Ames, Mark M Churchland
    Neurons in motor cortex contain information about each arm, but these signals are separated into different dimensions, allowing separate control of each arm.

    Implicit motor adaptation patterns in a redundant motor task manipulating a stick with both hands

    Toshiki Kobayashi, Daichi Nozaki
    A novel motor task reveals the principle of how the motor system coordinates the redundant body for motor adaptation.
    1. Neuroscience

    External location of touch is constructed post-hoc based on limb choice

    Femke Maij, Christian Seegelke ... Tobias Heed
    Humans retrospectively localize touch after deciding on which limb it occurred, challenging the mainstream idea that tactile location in space is the basis for assigning touch to a body part.

    Left hemisphere dominance for bilateral kinematic encoding in the human brain

    Christina M Merrick, Tanner C Dixon ... Richard B Ivry
    An electrode-wise encoding model based on physiological recordings from the cortical surface revealed a striking hemispheric asymmetry where the encoding of ipsilateral movement was stronger in the left hemisphere compared to the right hemisphere.

    The energetic basis for smooth human arm movements

    Jeremy D Wong, Tyler Cluff, Arthur D Kuo
    An energetic cost related to force rate is quantified in human arm movements, and minimizing this cost predicts smoothness without minimizing variance, unifies motor-planning of smoothness and movement duration, and may help resolve motor redundancies.
    1. Neuroscience

    Multiple decisions about one object involve parallel sensory acquisition but time-multiplexed evidence incorporation

    Yul HR Kang, Anne Löffler ... Michael N Shadlen
    When making two decisions about one object, two streams of information can be acquired in parallel but must be incorporated into the two decisions serially, consistent with a central bottleneck.
    1. Neuroscience

    Rapid learning and unlearning of predicted sensory delays in self-generated touch

    Konstantina Kilteni, Christian Houborg, H Henrik Ehrsson
    The brain continuously updates the learned temporal relationship between motor commands and their associated somatosensory feedback, which determines the perceived intensity and ticklishness of self-touch.
    1. Neuroscience

    Independent representations of ipsilateral and contralateral limbs in primary motor cortex

    Ethan A Heming, Kevin P Cross ... Stephen H Scott
    Neural recordings demonstrate how information about the contralateral limb can be isolated from the ipsilateral limb in motor cortex.
    1. Neuroscience

    Revealing the neural fingerprints of a missing hand

    Sanne Kikkert, James Kolasinski ... Tamar R Makin
    The brain continues to represent individual fingers in primary somatosensory cortex decades after the amputation of a hand, indicating that cortical maps do not require ongoing sensory input from the body.
    1. Neuroscience

    Differential contributions of the two human cerebral hemispheres to action timing

    Anja Pflug, Florian Gompf ... Christian Alexander Kell
    Brain imaging reveals frequency-dependent lateralized rhythmic finger tapping control by the auditory cortex with left-lateralized control of relative fast and right-lateralized control of relative slow rhythms.
