Understanding motor events: a neurophysiological study
Neurons of the rostral part of inferior premotor cortex of the monkey discharge during goal-directed hand movements such as grasping, holding, and tearing. We report here that m...
Notes on the Hypothesis of Columnar Organization in Somatosensory Cerebral Cortex; pp. 16–31
The five principles that make up the hypothesis of columnar organization for somatosensory cerebral cortex are considered in relation to their experimental foundations. Several ...
Parietal cortex neurons of the monkey related to the visual guidance of hand movement
A class of neurons specifically related to hand movements was studied in the posterior parietal cortex while the monkeys manipulated different types of objects. We examined the ...
Dendritic asymmetry cannot account for directional responses of neurons in visual cortex
A simple model was proposed to account for the direction selectivity of neurons in the primary visual cortex, area V1. In this model, the temporal asymmetries in the summation o...
