Do gravity-related sensory information enable the enhancement of cortical proprioceptive inputs when planning a step in microgravity?

We recently found that the cortical response to proprioceptive stimulation was greater when participants were planning a step than when they stood still, and that this sensory facilitation was suppressed in microgravity. The aim of the present study was to test whether the absence of gravity-related...
