Separate brainstem circuits for fast steering and slow exploratory turns

Abstract Locomotion requires precise tuning of descending commands to scale turning movements, such as rapid steering during prey pursuit or shallow turns during exploration. We show that these two turn types are governed by distinct brainstem circuits. The rapid steering circuit involves excitatory...
