What is the functional relevance of reorganization in primary motor cortex after spinal cord injury?

Motor output maps within primary motor cortex are widely distributed and modified by motor skill learning and neurological injury. Functions that these maps represent after spinal cord injury remain debatable. Moreover, the pattern of reorganization and whether it supports recovery of compromised mo...
