Abstract

This Special Z-Issue of Motor Control contains papers written by students, trainees, and younger colleagues of Professor Vladimir M. Zatsiorsky, who turns 90 years young in December 2022, and continues being an inspiration for researchers in movement science. The contributions of Vladimir Zatsiorsky to biomechanics, sport science, and motor control are so many and varied that he is rightfully viewed as a classic in all those ﬁ elds of research. In these brief introductory comments, I will try to focus on the main contributions of Vladimir to motor control, although many of those studies can also be viewed as pertaining to biomechanics.Mostearlier studies by Vladimir were in the ﬁ elds of biomechanics and sport science. Those early studies culminated in a book Physical Qualities of an Athlete published in 1966 in Russian. This book became a bestseller and was translated into 10 languages. After his emigration to the United States, Vladimir published three volumes (Zatsiorsky, 1998, 2002; Zatsiorsky & Prilutsky, 2012) that have become the go-to sources for researchers in biomechanics and motor control. In addition, he wrote a book on strength training (Zatsiorsky, 1995), which has become his most popular publication if one judges by the number of citations. I

期刊介绍： Motor Control (MC), a peer-reviewed journal, provides a multidisciplinary examination of human movement across the lifespan. To keep you abreast of current developments in the field of motor control, it offers timely coverage of important topics, including issues related to motor disorders. This international journal publishes many types of research papers, from clinical experimental to modeling and theoretical studies. These papers come from such varied disciplines as biomechanics, kinesiology, neurophysiology, neuroscience, psychology, physical medicine, and rehabilitation. Motor Control, the official journal of the International Society of Motor Control, is designed to provide a multidisciplinary forum for the exchange of scientific information on the control of human movement across the lifespan, including issues related to motor disorders. Motor Control encourages submission of papers from a variety of disciplines including, but not limited to, biomechanics, kinesiology, neurophysiology, neuroscience, psychology, physical medicine, and rehabilitation. This peer-reviewed journal publishes a wide variety of types of research papers including clinical experimental, modeling, and theoretical studies. To be considered for publication, papers should clearly demonstrate a contribution to the understanding of control of movement. In addition to publishing research papers, Motor Control publishes review articles, quick communications, commentaries, target articles, and book reviews. When warranted, an entire issue may be devoted to a specific topic within the area of motor control.
