The mouse motor system contains multiple premotor areas and partially follows human

Valerio Zerbi, Joanes Grandjean

While humans are known to have several premotor cortical areas, secondary motor cortex (M2) is often considered to be the only higher -order motor area of the mouse brain and is thought to combine properties of various human premotor cortices. Here, we sho ...
