Open questions in elucidating neural mechanisms underlying sensory-guided motor control.

Sensory feedback is needed to dynamically adjust motor behaviors as we interact with the world, and understanding sensory-guided motor control could be beneficial in guiding future therapeutic strategies for patients suffering from spinal cord injury or other neurological diseases. To explore some of the open questions in this topic, we spoke with several experts in the field: Professor Karl Friston (UCL); Dr. Andrew Pruszynski and Dr. Mehrdad Kashefi (Western University, Canada); Professor Fan Wang and Dr. Kyle Severson (MIT, USA); and Professor Anne Churchland and Dr. Felicia Davatolhagh (UCLA, USA). We discuss some of the main theories of sensory-motor integration, some of the challenges and open questions in this field, and exciting future directions, including neurorehabilitation.
