    Somatosens Mot Res 19:139-48. 2002
    ..These data suggest that while MI primarily receives inputs originating from Cb and SMA primarily receives inputs originating from GPi, it also appears that MI and SMA receive secondary afferents arising from GPi and Cb, respectively...

    Department of Psychology and Neuroscience Program, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA
    Neuroscience 163:1158-70. 2009
    ..The present results define the origins of the reticulospinal system in the monkey and provide an important foundation for future investigations of the anatomy and physiology of this system in primates...

    Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 362:523-38. 2007
    ..Finally, it appears that the gross anatomy of the brain in spotted hyenas might resemble that in primates with respect to expansion of frontal cortex, presumed to be involved in the mediation of social behaviour...

    ..Thus, the overlapping spinothalamic and cerebellar inputs may provide a substrate for the altered activity of motor thalamic neurons in such patients...
