Mechanisms of Motor Adaptation in Reactive Balance Control ¤ Torrence D. J. Welch , Lena H. Ting* W. H. Coulter Department of Biomedical Engineering, Emory University and Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, United States of America Abstract Balance control must be rapidly modified to provide stability in the face of environmental challenges. Although changes in reactive balance over repeated perturbations have been observed previously, only anticipatory postural adjus
