The distinction between dorsal and ventral visual processing streams, first proposed by

Evidence for a dichotomy between the planning of an action and its on-line control in

Adaptive motor behavior requires efficient error detection and correction. The posterior
parietal cortex is critical for on-line control of reach-to-grasp movements. Here we show a …

Two major functions of the visual system are discussed and contrasted. One function of
vision is the creation of an internal model or percept of the external world. Most research in …
