This lecture delves into the neural control of movement, focusing on the sensorimotor system, descending systems, basal ganglia, and cerebellum. It explores the coordination of ongoing movement, motor-error based learning, and specific deficits in motor control. The instructor discusses genetic mutations affecting the cerebellum, the role of Purkinje neurons, and the critical function of motor errors in learning and adaptation.
