The division of cortical visual processing into distinct dorsal and ventral streams is a key
framework that has guided visual neuroscience. The characterization of the ventral stream …

A series of recent anatomical and functional data has radically changed our view on the
organization of the motor cortex in primates. In the present article we present this view and …

First published in 1995, The Visual Brain in Action remains a seminal publication in the
cognitive sciences. It presents a model for understanding the visual processing underlying …

In this study, we mainly investigated the visual selectivity of hand-manipulation-related
neurons in the anterior intraparietal area (area AIP) while the animal was grasping or …

Functional neuroimaging has proven highly valuable in mapping human sensory regions,
particularly visual areas in occipital cortex. Recent evidence suggests that human parietal …

People have always been fascinated by the exquisite precision and flexibility of the human
hand. When hand meets object, we confront the overlapping worlds of sensorimotor and …

We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to map the cortical representations
of executed reaching, observed reaching, and imagined reaching in humans. Whereas …

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 …

The neural events associated with visually guided reaching begin with an image on the
retina and end with impulses to the muscles. In between, a reaching plan is formed. This …

Research from macaque neurophysiology and human neuropsychology has implicated the
parietal cortex in the sensory control of action. Functional neuroimaging has been very …
