Movements are inherently variable. This property of behaviour is so glaring it can be proved with little more than a piece of paper and a pen. Attempting to repeatedly sign one's name in the same spot quickly yields a blob of ink instead of a legible, ever darkening signature. Even so, we rarely stumble over our words or mistakenly step off of cliffs. The nervous system has strategies for controlling unpredictable disturbances and countering predictable ones so that behavioural goals are, more or less, achieved. What causes movement variability in the first place and how does the nervous system achieve movement accuracy when confronted with it? This doctoral thesis presents a series of studies that examine the problem of making accurate lim...
