Highlights d Brainstem V2a neurons control orienting movements, locomotor speed, and trajectory d Distinct V2a subsets contact the cervical and lumbar spinal segments d Cervical-projecting V2a neurons govern the head orientation and the path trajectory d Lumbar-projecting V2a neurons are dedicated to control locomotor velocity
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations –citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
