You’re walking on the sidewalk and before you know it you are slipping on a patch of ice hidden under a dusting of snow. Sometimes you fall. Surprisingly often, you manage to recover your balance and walk away unscathed. ƻ����Ժ researchers now understand what’s going on in the brain when you manage to recover your balance in these situations. And it is not just a matter of good luck.
