Turning in an insect is the combined result of body-side-specific modifications in processing of local sensory feedback, and modification of local central pattern generator activity.

Humans can predict and optimally plan goal-directed dynamic walking tasks that have transient events such as negotiating a sidewalk curb.

The breathing motor program is re-engaged to control the fluctuations in vocal pitch during a sound.

In the Arabidopsis epidermis, the internal mechanical stress of a cell competes with the external stress to control microtubule behavior, providing a framework to understand the mechanical feedbacks that underlie plant morphogenesis.

Conditional silencing of long ascending propriospinal neurons disrupts interlimb coordination of the fore and hindlimb pairs, but in a highly context-specific manner.

Segment-specific boundaries of histone modifications reveal the regulatory logic of a classic developmental control region.

Stem cell derived ventral-spinal cord excitatory neurons self-assemble into a rhythmically bursting neural network whose speed and intercellular coordination are both instructively modulated by cell-type specific interactions with inhibitory neurons.

Population output variability in a motor control system varies across levels (CPG, motor neurons, muscles) and can be ascribed to life history differences among animals and in some cases to differences between bilaterally homologous elements.

The ability to discriminate highly overlapping events in memory is a multistage process supported by a network of brain regions and neocortical–hippocampal interactions.

Mental codes that track our position within complex, behavioral sequences, have been hard to pin down empirically, but can be identified and traced over time using oscillatory EEG activity.
