Evidence for automatic on-line adjustments of hand orientation during natural reaching movements to stationary targets.

abstract：:During locomotion, contacting an obstacle generates a coordinated response involving flexion of the stimulated leg and activation of extensors contralaterally to ensure adequate support and forward progression. Activation of motoneurons innervating contralateral muscles (i.e., crossed extensor reflex) has always been ...
