[FUN_Mail] Videos from Lawrence & Kuypers

[Cleland, Corey Lee - clelancl]

All -

For anyone teaching the role of the motor cortex in the control of movement, a fantastic new resource is available.

Kuypers and Lawrence back around 1968 published lesion studies that pretty much defined the relative contributions of corticospinal, lateral and medial pathways; distinctions that still hold up today. Their data revolved largely around video of monkeys with different lesions. Those videos are now available in supplemental material for an article in Brain.

I have been checking Youtube/Google literally every two years or so with the hope they were available. Finally it paid off.

enjoy
