  • Locations of electrodes are coded by grid position (see Fig 1A, CS26, CS27) or number in the implanted array (CS25). Locations were determined from postmortem histology; the depth (in millimeters) is the depth along the track from the pial surface measured in fixed tissue. The cortical lamina in which the electrode tip was located is also indicated. Motor effects and thresholds of rICMS at the beginning of the experimental period are given for each electrode. Experiments lasted for between 5 and 16 weeks, and the range of currents used in this period is indicated in the last column. All the M1 electrode and cannula tracks were in the rostral bank of the central sulcus. All the F5 electrode and cannula tracks were in the inferior bank of the arcuate sulcus. I, Thumb; II–V, fingers; ext, extension; flx, flexion; abd, abduction; add, adduction; wm, white matter.
