What are the cortical neural correlates that distinguish goal-directed and non–goal-directed
movements? We investigated this question in the monkey frontal eye field (FEF), which is …

Sequences of saccadic eye movements are instrumental in navigating our visual
environment. While neural activity has been shown to ramp up to a threshold before single …

Learned action sequences are suggested to be organized hierarchically, but how the
various hierarchical levels are processed by different cortical regions remains largely …

Attending to other people's gaze is evolutionary important to make inferences about
intentions and actions. Gaze influences covert attention and triggers eye movements …

Temporal intervals appear compressed at the time of saccades. Here, I asked if saccadic
compression of time is related to motor planning or to saccade execution. To dissociate …

Humans can learn and produce skilled movement sequences from memory, yet the nature of
sequence planning is not well understood. Previous computational and neurophysiological …

运动规划涉及生活的方方面面, 从拿起一个水杯到驾驶车辆时的应急处理,
大脑无时无刻不在规划着运动的方式以获得最好的运动结果. 运动规划能力的评估可以对运动员 …

Goal-directed behavior involves the transformation of neural movement plans into
appropriate muscle activity patterns. Studies involving single saccades have shown that a …

The role of cerebellum in controlling eye movements is well established, but its contribution
to more complex forms of visual behavior has remained elusive. To study cerebellar activity …

The frontal eye field (FEF) is a key part of the oculomotor system, with dominant responses
to the direction of single saccades. However, whether and how FEF contributes to sequential …
