The insular is the interoception, which would be all those things you mentioned. So by eliciting motor commands, it's not only refining the movement down, but it's also telling the body prepare yourself for potentially a whole lot of activity. And that's about physiological preparation. Yes.
In this thought-provoking episode, Dr Matt and Dr Mike delve into the intriguing world of neuroscience as a new paper emerges, presenting significant findings that challenge long-held beliefs about the motor cortex. Join us as we carefully examine the intricate details of this study and discuss its implications for our understanding of movement, motor control, and brain plasticity. Together, we navigate the evolving landscape of the motor cortex and explore how these fresh insights may shape the future of neuroscience. Get ready to gain new perspectives and explore the fascinating developments unfolding in our understanding of the motor cortex.
