Locomozione complesse in ambienti naturalistici che richiedono attento coordinamento degli arti coinvolge regioni della corteccia parietale. Il seguente protocollo descrive l'uso di disattivazione reversibile indotta da raffreddamento per dimostrare il ruolo di zona parietale 5 a evitare di memoria-guida ostacolo nel gatto a piedi.
