Formation, function, and regeneration of corticospinal circuits underlying skilled movements
PRESENTATION:
Invited SpeakerMay 2020
On Thursday, May 28, Dr. Yutaka Yoshida, Director of the Neural Connectivity Development in Physiology and Disease Laboratory Burke Neurological Institute, presented “Formation, function, and regeneration of corticospinal circuits underlying skilled movements,” as part of the Progress in Neuroscience Seminar Series hosted by the Brian & Mind Research Institute at Weill Cornell Medicine. Dr. Yoshida discussed his research and its focus on the neural circuits underlying locomotor and skilled motor behaviors in mammals, and the precise signaling by spinal motor neurons required for coordinating the upwards of fifty different muscle groups in our limbs to create movement.
