Walking and running places immense load on our feet, with 20% of adults suffering from foot pain. Recent research has highlighted the important role of the muscles within the foot in facilitating our ability to withstand excessive load and maintain balance. But it remains unknown how the nervous system controls this function. This research will explore how the brain and spinal cord control these muscles, providing a comprehensive understanding of the role of the foot in balance and gait.

走路和跑步给我们的脚带来了巨大的负担，20%的成年人患有足部疼痛。最近的研究强调了脚部肌肉在促进我们承受过度负荷和保持平衡方面的重要作用。但目前还不清楚神经系统是如何控制这一功能的。这项研究将探索大脑和脊髓是如何控制这些肌肉的，从而全面了解脚在平衡和步态中的作用。
