To ensure smooth sequential actions, reaches to at least two future targets are planned during the execution of the current reach and the planning processes of the future reaches interact.

The development of knowledge for a board game facilitates memory for sequences in the game, demonstrating a new mechanism for the facilitation by enabling complicated predictions.

Inhibition of protein synthesis in primary motor cortex (M1) of monkeys disrupted the performance of skilled sequential movements suggesting that M1 is involved in maintenance of skilled sequential movements.

When carrying out a sequence of movements, humans can plan several steps in advance to make the movement smooth.

A grooming sequence is produced by a neural architecture that readies different movements simultaneously, and a mechanism where prioritized suppression between the movements determines their sequential performance.

Gaining genetic control over neural modules that drive the grooming of each Drosophila body part reveals how mechanisms for selecting among competing behavioral choices are used to generate sequences of actions.

The neuroanatomical and functional analysis of genetically-identified motoneurons controlling all major steps of Drosophila proboscis extension provides new insights into the architecture of a motor circuitry controlling a reaching-like behavior.

Long-latency reflexes flexibly encode future goals during sequential reaching movements, reflecting the parallel and task-dependent processing of a sequence of goals in circuits that mediate fast feedback control.

During a spatial working memory task, neurons in the dorsomedial striatum encode the sample stimulus most strongly towards the onset of the delay period, while they display sequential firing activity that more evenly spans the delay period.

The spatial and temporal patterns of eye movements exhibited by humans in virtual reality reveal how they plan paths when navigating in complex, naturalistic environments.
