• Transformation of nonfunctional spinal circuits into functional states after the loss of brain input (2009, neutral): “Circuits underlying such rhythmic and oscillatory outputs are commonly referred to as central pattern generators (CPGs) and are found in all invertebrate and vertebrate animal”
• Recovery of supraspinal control of stepping via indirect propriospinal relay connections after spinal cord injury (2008, background): “1a ) to test the effect of interrupting descending inputs to locomotor circuits at lumbar segments L1–L2 (ref”
• The road to walking: What learning to walk tells us about development (2013, background): “In particular, studies of the neural mechanisms of animal locomotion attributed rhythmic, alternating patterns of muscle and neural activity to dedicated neural circuitry—central pattern generators—that govern the basic alternating pattern of limb coordination (Grillner, 1985; Guertin & Steuer, 2009”
• STAT3 is a critical regulator of astrogliosis and scar formation after spinal cord injury (2008, methodology): “To look for potential reporter expression specifically in afferent neurons that project to the spinal cord and might influence the response to SCI, we conducted single-cell confocal microscopic analysis in GFP reporter mice after injection of retrograde tract tracer into the same region of the lumba”
• Epha4-dependent axon guidance is mediated by the racgap α2-chimaerin (2007, neutral): “…interneurons, which coordinate flexor-extensor activities, and inhibitory and excitatory commissural interneurons (CINs), which cross the ventral spinal cord midline to reciprocally control the activity of contralateral motor neurons and hence coordinate left-right activities (Kiehn, 2006).”

• Biological pattern generation: the cellular and computational logic of networks in motion. (2006, background): “CPGs that control rhythmic behaviors like breathing, chewing, and locomotion generate rhythmic neural activity over an extended period (see Feldman and Del Negro, 2006; Grillner, 2003; Combes et al., 2004; Kiehn, 2006; Tunstall et al., 2002).”
