Published on January 10, 2021

Movements of the eyes assist vision and support hand and body movements in a cooperative way. Despite their strong functional coupling, different types of movements are usually studied independently. We integrate knowledge from behavioral, neurophysiological, and clinical studies on how eye movements are coordinated with goal-directed hand movements and how they facilitate motor learning. Understanding the coordinated control of eye and hand movements can provide important insights into brain functions that are essential for performing or learning daily tasks in health and disease.
