Kinsbourne's latest publication was " Somatic Twist : A Model for the Evolution of Decussation " ( 2013 ).

He performed pioneer investigations on the internal structure of the spinal cord, and gave an early, detailed description of the decussation of the pyramids.

It is formed by approximately 2 % of the corticospinal fibers that do not cross to the opposite side of the brainstem in the pyramidal decussation.
14.
Damage to different parts of the body will cause deficits, depending on whether the damage is above ( rostral ) or below ( caudal ) the pyramidal decussation.
15.
The netrins act as chemoattractants to decussation of pain and temperature sensory neurons in the alar plate across the anterior white commissure, where they then ascend towards the thalamus.
16.
In 1956, Galambos activated the efferent fibres of the cat by delivering shock stimuli to the floor of the fourth ventricle ( at the decussation of the COCB ).
17.
With a lesion in the brainstem, this affects the majority of limb and trunk muscles on the contralateral side due to the upper motor neurons decussation after the brainstem.
18.
He was the first scientist to work out the physiology of the spinal cord, demonstrating that the decussation of the fibres carrying pain and temperature sensation occurs in the cord itself.
19.
The main difference between such a chiasm and a decussation is that not all nerve fibres entering the chiasm cross over, whereas in a decussation there should be complete crossing over.
