fMRI adaptation between action observation and action execution reveals cortical areas with mirror neuron properties in human BA 44/45

fMRI adaptation between action observation and action execution reveals cortical areas with mirror neuron properties in human BA 44/45

Mirror Neurons (MNs) are considered to be the supporting neural mechanism for action understanding. MNs have been identified in monkey’s area F5. The identification of MNs in the human homologue of monkeys’ area F5 (BA 44/45) has been proven methodologically difficult. Cross-modal fMRI adaptation st...
