They found some interesting results. The output neurons of the basal ganglia keep their target motor centres under inhibition at rest. They release the movements by removing this inhibition, explains Grillner, Thus, when you decide to do something you remove that inhibition from the group of nerve cells that control the specific behaviour of interest. But, he adds: it is rather difficult to intuitively understand these complex networks, where many different components change from millisecond to millisecond.
