Motor directional tuning across brain areas: Directional resonance and the role of inhibition for directional accuracy

Motor directional tuning (Georgopoulos et al., 1982) has been found in every brain area in which it has been sought for during the past 30-odd years. It is typically broad, with widely distributed preferred directions and a population signal that predicts accurately the direction of an upcoming rea...
