Hello, Jpfinkelstein, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Comments for Neural Circuits

edit

The only comment I have is that the section on the neuron counts is a bit random. It clearly is clearly cited and supported, but it feels like it comes out of nowhere. Maybe if more information was added on how scientists study the Magnocellular red nucleus, the section on determining neuron counts would be more in place. Because the article is new, it's not that big a deal. As more info is added the organization and flow will improve. MarshNak (talk) 21:37, 22 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Yasemin Losee Comments: While there seems to be ample data regarding the development of the mRN, I think that this article would benefit from a bit more elaboration on its function. I know that the "Overview" section of the article talks about the RN's relation to movement in the forelimb, but I'd love to see more about this. What specific forms of movement does the mRN control (for example: voluntary or involuntary movements)? Are there any particular circuits that have been discovered regarding the (m)GN and its various inputs/outputs? Are there any published and reliable experiments showcasing the function of the (m)RN? If there isn't too much information about specific circuits, then it may also be useful to elaborate on the difference in function between the Magnocellular RN and the Parvocellular RN, so readers understand why scientists decided to split the Red Nucleus into two different components. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ylosee (talkcontribs) 00:01, 25 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
