Pathways linking action to perception are generally presented as passing from sensory
pathways, through the thalamus, and then to a putative hierarchy of corticocortical links to …

Recent observations of single axons and review of older literature show that axons afferent
to the thalamus commonly branch, sending one branch to the thalamus and another to a …

Modern anatomical studies show that, contrary to the long‐held dogma, there appears to be
essentially no convergence of lemniscal, cerebellar, pallidal, or substantial nigral afferents in …

Two leading authorities on thalamocortical connections consider how the neural circuits of
the brain relate to our actions and perceptions. In this book, two leading authorities on the …

We now know that sensory processing in cortex occurs not only via direct communication
between primary to secondary areas, but also via their parallel cortico-thalamo-cortical (ie …

The thalamus plays a critical role in perceptual processing, but many questions remain
about what thalamus activities contribute to sensory and motor functions. In this book, two …

It is argued that the cortical premotor areas are concerned with the conditions for action.
Actions are based both on facts about the outside world and about the actions of the animal …

A traditional view of the thalamus is that it is a relay station which receives sensory input and
conveys this information to cortex. This sensory input determines most of the properties of …

One approach to examining how higher sensory, motor, and cognitive faculties emerge in
the neocortex is to elucidate the underlying wiring principles of the brain during …

Many of the ascending pathways to the thalamus have branches involved in movement
control. In addition, the recently defined, rich innervation of 'higher'thalamic nuclei (such as …
