Special issue in Manipulation of sensory information postural control performance of children, young and older adults

Description

Papers that provide comprehensive and thoughtful analysis of postural control due to manipulation of sensory systems (visual, somatosensory and vestibular) applied to tasks relevant to everyday life across the life span were published in this special issue.

Special issue in Using the Framework of the Uncontrolled Manifold (UCM) to Understand Motor Behavior

Description

Special issue for celebrating the 25th anniversary of the seminal work by John Scholz and Gregor Schöner, published in Experimental Brain Research, which introduced the Uncontrolled Manifold (UCM) framework to the motor behavior scientific community. Manuscripts that utilize the UCM framework to enhance our understanding of motor behavior and explore how the central nervous system controls and coordinates motor elements to stabilize performance variables in any motor task were published in this special issue.
