Evidence for a dichotomy between the planning of an action and its on-line control in
humans is reviewed. This evidence suggests that planning and control each serve a …

In 1992, Goodale and Milner proposed a division of labour in the visual pathways of the
primate cerebral cortex between a dorsal stream specialised for the visual control of action …

The cognitive neuroscience of human vision draws on two kinds of evidence: functional
imaging of normal subjects and the study of neurological patients with visual disorders …

There are multiple routes from vision to action that play a role in the production of visually
guided reaching and grasping. What remain to be resolved, however, are the conditions …

When we reach out to pick something up, our arm is directed to the target by visuomotor
networks in the cortical dorsal stream. However, our reach trajectories are influenced also by …

We can predict how an object would look if we were to see it from different viewpoints by
imagining its rotation. This essential human ability, called mental rotation (MR), guides …

A common notion is that object perception is a necessary precursor to scene perception.
Behavioral evidence suggests, however, that scene perception can operate independently …

We tested the influence of two horizontally aligned visual landmarks on pointing movements
to memorized targets, to investigate whether the visuomotor system can make use of an …

Performance on some neuropsychological tests is best expressed as the slope of a
regression line. Examples include the quantification of performance on tests designed to …

The spatial character of our reaching movements is extremely sensitive to potential
obstacles in the workspace. We recently found that this sensitivity was retained by most …
