This book summarizes the main aspects of our current understanding of sensorimotor integration in 10 chapters written by leading scientists in this active and ever-growing field. This volume focuses on the whisker system, which is an exquisite model to experimentally approach sensorimotor integration in the mammalian brain. In this book, authors examine the whisker system on many different levels, ranging from the building blocks and neuronal circuits to sensorimotor behavior. Neuronal coding strategies, comparative analysis as well as robotics illustrate the multiple facets of this research and its broad impact on fundamental questions about the neurobiology of the mammalian brain.NeurosciencesArtificial intelligenceNeurology Neuroscienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B18006Artificial Intelligencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000Neurologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H36001Neurosciences.Artificial intelligence.Neurology .Neurosciences.Artificial Intelligence.Neurology.610Krieger Patrikedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGroh Alexanderedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298449503321Sensorimotor Integration in the Whisker System2512275UNINA
