Recent research reveals that bumblebees can recognize and learn abstract rhythms, akin to humans. Traditionally believed to be unique to advanced brains, this study demonstrates bees' ability to ...

The neural control of rhythmic arm and leg movements encompasses the integration of central and peripheral pathways that coordinate locomotion and complex motor tasks. These processes involve both ...

A well-trained athlete sprinting 100 yards performs a highly stereotyped, repetitive motor pattern. Neuroscientists understand that these rhythmic motor programs, such as walking, swimming and running ...
