title: Relation of slowly conducting pyramidal tract neurons to specific aspects of forearm movement.
abstract: PT neurons were recorded from monkeys performing a trained motor task that included tonic maintenance of a limb position, slow and controlled and then quick wrist movements. The results suggest that many of slowly conducting PTNs have preferential relations with specific aspects of slow or tonic motor acts.
