Adam Gosztolai (PI) is awarded the WWTF Vienna Research Group grant (1.6m EUR) to develop a foundation model of primate locomotion.
Thanks to decades of progress in understanding the motor system, we have now an impressive ability to decode arm and hand movements from neural recordings. Most decoders work in a feed-forward or open-loop fashion, assuming that the behaviour is directly predictable from neural data. However, this means that for behaviours such as locomotion (or...
