Skilled grasp is a sensorimotor process requiring the brain to extract sensory cues from the environment to shape a motor command.
This is a dynamic network, and plastic changes can occur when particular types of skilled grasp, such as the use of a tool, are learned for the first time [ 25,26].

We therefore believe that the development of precision pinching coincides with the development of feedback-based, skilled grasping (see Sect. 4).
ILGA could be extended to a more complete model by including aspects of these other models such as inverse kinematics for the hand and feedback-based grasp control (described in Skilled grasping, above), using visual feedback for the control of the hand, and utilizing haptic feedback for corrective movements.
We found that bilateral injections of the PKMζ inhibitor ZIP into the sensorimotor cortex of rats erased the sensorimotor memories learned in a skilled reach-to-grasp task [19].
It may therefore become a valuable tool in future studies related to plasticity-induced changes in skilled forelimb reaching and grasping movements.
This period may correspond to a period of visual experience before the development of skilled reaching in which no grasps are attempted and visual regions are shaped by unsupervised learning mechanisms.
