Our understanding of the functions of motor system evolved remarkably in the last 20 years.
This is the consequence not only of an increase in the amount of data on this system but …

Mirror neurons were discovered over twenty years ago in the ventral premotor region F5 of
the macaque monkey. Since their discovery much has been written about these neurons …

Noninvasively mapping the layout of cortical areas in humans is a continuing challenge for
neuroscience. We present a new method of mapping cortical areas based on myelin content …

The Rhesus Monkey Brain in Stereotaxic Coordinates is the most comprehensive and
accurate atlas of the monkey brain. The fourth edition of this classic book is a complete …

Human ventrolateral frontal cortex (vlFC) is identified with cognitive processes such as
language and cognitive flexibility. The relationship between it and the vlFC of other primates …

Mirror neurons are a specific type of visuomotor neuron that discharge both when a monkey
executes a motor act and when it observes a similar motor act performed by another …

There is much current debate about the existence of mirror neurons in humans. To identify
mirror neurons in the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) of humans, we used a repetition suppression …

There is a considerable contrast between the various functions assigned to Broca's region
and its relatively simple subdivision into two cytoarchitectonic areas (44 and 45). Since the …

It is well known that ventral premotor area F5 codes the goal of executed and observed
motor acts. This area is anatomically connected with part of the inferior parietal cortex (area …

In primates, neural mechanisms for controlling skilled hand actions primarily rely on
sensorimotor transformations. These transformations are mediated by circuits linking specific …
