Muscle synergies for directional control of center of mass in various postural strategies

Our long-term goal is to better understand how the nervous system controls muscles to generate movement. Our overall hypothesis is that the nervous system coordinates muscles by flexibly recruiting muscle synergies, defined here as groups of muscles simultaneously activated in fixed ratios, in orde...
