Remarkable Findings – New Research Reveals That the Spinal Cord Can Learn and Memorize
New research reveals that spinal cord neurons possess the capability to learn and retain information independently of the brain.
The spinal cord is often described as merely a conduit for transmitting signals between the brain and the body. However, the spinal cord can actually learn and remember movements on its own.
A team of researchers at the Leuven-based Neuro-Electronics Research Flanders (NERF) details how two different neuronal populations enable the spinal cord to adapt and recall learned behavior in a way that is completely independent of the brain. These remarkable findings, published in the journal Science, shed new light on how spinal circuits might contribute to mastering and automating movement. The insights could prove relevant in the rehabilitation of people with spinal injuries.
