New pub from @DrewBeauchamp. We showed prolonged firing of motoneurons makes it hard to control force, estimates of PICs are larger at short muscle lengths, and combining the two exacerbates this prolongation of firing-induced force variability. https://t.co/j27V71RJJE

💥Preprint update💥 Based on feedback from reviewers, we updated our work that aims to understand gain control in force output. In addition to human motor unit data, we’ve used in silico models of motoneuron firing in an attempt to understand scaling of force output {1/3}
