Loud acoustic stimulation reveals an online reticulospinal contribution to long-latency reflexes in humans

The long-latency reflex (LLR), the fastest feedback response that recruits supraspinal pathways, is an important model for understanding how descending motor pathways shape rapid corrective responses in humans. While the corticospinal tract's contribution to the LLR has been well established, that of the reticulospinal tract, the other major descending motor pathway, remains purely speculative.…
