Language within our grasp
- TRENDS IN NEUROSCIENCES
, 1998
"... In monkeys, the rostral part of ventral premotor cortex (area F5) contains neurons that discharge, both when the monkey grasps or manipulates objects and when it observes the experimenter making similar actions. These neurons (mirror neurons) appear to represent a system that matches observed events ..."

Activation of the middle fusiform ‘face area’ increases with expertise in recognizing novel objects,
- Nature Neuroscience
, 1999
"... 568 nature neuroscience • volume 2 no 6 • june 1999 articles Evidence for specialization in the fusiform gyrus for human face perception comes from both neuroimaging and neuropsychological studies Subjects were trained with novel objects called greebles 14 RESULTS We localized the brain areas mor ..."

, the preference for faces over greebles in right hemisphere face-specific I.G. (isabel.gauthier@yale.edu) Part of the ventral temporal lobe is thought to be critical for face perception, but what determines this specialization remains unknown. We present evidence that expertise recruits the fusiform gyrus
Grasping the Intentions of Others with One’s Own Mirror Neuron System
, 2005
"... Understanding the intentions of others while watching their actions is a fundamental building block of social behavior. The neural and functional mechanisms underlying this ability are still poorly understood. To investigate these mechanisms we used functional magnetic resonance imaging. Twenty-thre ..."

or cleaning). Actions embedded in contexts, compared with the other two conditions, yielded a significant signal increase in the posterior part of the inferior frontal gyrus and the adjacent sector of the ventral premotor cortex where hand actions are represented. Thus, premotor mirror neuron areas

The Invariance Hypothesis and the Ventral Stream
, 2014
"... Unlike Athena, the new ventral stream theory foreshadowed in these pages did not spring fully-formed from the head of Zeus. We: primarily Tomaso Poggio, Fabio Anselmi, Lorenzo Rosasco, Jim Mutch, Andrea Tacchetti, and myself, developed it—and continue to refine it—within a context in which the quest ..."

Some of them (chapters two and three) were mostly completed before we knew they were parts of a larger story. Whereas, the work of chapters four
Visuomotor neurons: ambiguity of the discharge or ‘motor’ perception?
- INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGY 35 2000 165--177
, 2000
"... The cortical motor system has been classically considered as the unitary, output stage of the brain processing of sensory information. According to this idea, the motor cortex � the acting brain � receives the result of the perceptual processing Ž visual, acoustical, tactile, etc.. elaborated by the ..."

On the basis of electrophysiological data, we will propose that the apparent parodox stemming from the coexistence within
Honeybees ’ Speed Depends on Dorsal as Well as Lateral, Ventral and Frontal Optic Flows
"... Flying insects use the optic flow to navigate safely in unfamiliar environments, especially by adjusting their speed and their clearance from surrounding objects. It has not yet been established, however, which specific parts of the optical flow field insects use to control their speed. With a view ..."

More specifically, the honeybees ’ speed varied monotonically, depending on the minimum cross-section of the tunnel, regardless of whether the narrowing occurred in the horizontal
Neural signals in the monkey ventral striatum related to motivation for juice and cocaine rewards. J Neurophysiol 75:1061–1073
, 1996
"... Single neurons in the ventral striatum of primates carry signals that are related to reward and motivation. When monkeys performed a task requiring one to three bar release trials to be completed successfully before a reward was given, they seemed more motivated as the rewarded trials approached; th ..."

; they responded more quickly and accurately. When the mon-keys were cued as to the progress of the schedule, 89 out of 150 ventral striatal neurons responded in at least one part of the task: (1) at the onset of the visual cue, (2) near the time of bar release, and/or (3) near the time of reward delivery.

How (and where) does moral judgment work?
- Trends in Cognitive Science
, 2002

and 1960s, behaviorist and Freudian theories gave way to mental models and information processing as the preferred framework in psychology. In the moral domain, Lawrence Kohlberg was a part of this revolution. He built on the earlier work of Jean Piaget [1] to develop a six-stage model of the development
PROJECTIONS OF DORSAL AND MEDIAN RAPHE NUCLEI TO DORSAL AND VENTRAL STRIATUM
"... Abstract- The ascending serotonergic projections are derived mainly from mesencephalic raphe nuclei. Topographical projections from mesencephalic raphe nuclei to the striatum were examined in the rat by the retrograde transport technique of HRP (horseradish peroxidase). In 29 rats stereotaxically in ..."
