Abstract Understanding how the body is represented in the motor cortex is key to understanding how the brain controls movement. Although the motor cortex has been mapped in animal models at a fine scale1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10, characterization in humans remains primarily limited to low-resolution recording11,12,13,14,15,16 and stimulation techniques17,18,19,20.

Encoding of speech modes and loudness in ventral precentral gyrus

Abstract The ability to vary the mode and loudness of speech is an important part of the expressive range of human vocal communication. However, the encoding of these behaviors in the ventral precentral gyrus (vPCG) has not been studied at the resolution of neuronal firing rates. We investigated this in two participants who had intracortical microelectrode arrays implanted in their vPCG as part of a speech neuroprosthesis clinical trial.
