In many circumstances alternative courses of action and thoughts have to be inhibited to
allow the emergence of goal-directed behavior. However, this has not been the accepted�…

Motor learning encompasses a wide range of phenomena, ranging from relatively low-level
mechanisms for maintaining calibration of our movements, to making high-level cognitive�…

Motor cortex (M1) has been thought to form a continuous somatotopic homunculus
extending down the precentral gyrus from foot to face representations,, despite evidence for�…

In area F5 of the monkey premotor cortex there are neurons that discharge both when the
monkey performs an action and when he observes a similar action made by another monkey�…

We recorded electrical activity from 532 neurons in the rostral part of inferior area 6 (area F5)
of two macaque monkeys. Previous data had shown that neurons of this area discharge�…

This paper concerns how motor actions are neurally represented and coded. Action
planning and motor preparation can be studied using a specific type of representational�…

Upper-extremity impairment after stroke remains a major therapeutic challenge and a target
of neuromodulation treatment efforts. In this open-label, non-randomized phase I trial, we�…

1. We stimulated the motor cortex of normal subjects (transcranial magnetic stimulation)
while they 1) observed an experimenter grasping 3D-objects, 2) looked at the same 3D�…

The prefrontal cortex (PFC) plays a critical role in the generation and regulation of emotion.
However, we lack an integrative framework for understanding how different emotion-related�…

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�…
