Cognitive motor control: spatial and temporal aspects.

Full Abstract

Cognitive motor control refers to processes that blend cognitive and motor functions in a seamless, interwoven fashion. Such functions evolve in space and time at various levels of complexity. This article focuses on conceptual issues regarding spatial and temporal aspects of motor control as well as on methods suitable for extracting information from neuronal ensembles.
