Several neurophysiologic and neuroimaging studies suggested that motor and perceptual
systems are tightly linked along a continuum rather than providing segregated mechanisms …

Converging evidence supports the existence of functionally and neuroanatomically distinct
taxonomic (similarity-based; eg, hammer-screwdriver) and thematic (event-based; eg …

The neural bases of action and abstract concept representations remain a topic of debate.
While several lines of research provide evidence for grounding of action-related conceptual …

Many recent neuroimaging studies have investigated the representation of semantic
memory for actions in the brain. We used activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta …

A number of conflicting claims have been advanced regarding the role of the left inferior
frontal gyrus, inferior parietal lobe and posterior middle temporal gyrus in action recognition …

It is widely accepted that action and perception in humans functionally interact on multiple
levels. Moreover, areas originally suggested to be predominantly motor-related, as the …

Modelling behavioural deficits based on structural lesion imaging is a popular approach to
map functions in the human brain, and efforts to translationally apply lesion-behaviour …

In human lateral temporal cortex, some regions show specific sensitivity to human motion.
Here we examine whether such effects reflect a general biological–nonbiological …

To further investigate the neural substrates of lexical and conceptual knowledge of actions,
we administered a battery of six tasks to 226 brain-damaged patients with widely distributed …

Apraxia is a debilitating cognitive motor disorder that frequently occurs after left hemisphere
stroke and affects tool-associated and imitative skills. However, the severity of the apraxic …
