The mirror neuron system: New frontiers

Social Neuroscience, 2008
Since the discovery of mirror neurons, much effort has been invested into studying their location and properties in the human brain. Here we review these original findings and introduce the main topics of this special issue of Social Neuroscience. What does the mirror system code?

Mirror Neurons and Mirror Systems in Monkeys and Humans

Physiology, 2008
Mirror neurons are a distinct class of neurons that transform specific sensory information into a motor format. Mirror neurons have been originally discovered in the premotor and parietal cortex of the monkey. Subsequent neurophysiological (TMS, EEG, MEG) and brain imaging studies have shown that a mirror mechanism is also present in humans.

The mirror neuron system and treatment of stroke

Developmental Psychobiology, 2010
AbstractMirror neurons discharge during the execution of ecological goal‐directed manual and oral actions, as well as during the observation of the same actions done by other individuals. These neurons were first identified in the ventral premotor cortex (PMv; area F5) and later on in the inferior parietal lobule (areas PF and PFG) of monkey brain ...

A Look Inside the Mirror Neuron System

The Journal of Neuropsychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, 2013
In this article in the current Windows to the Brain column, the authors examine a concept that is only a little more than 20 years old — and one that has fascinated neuroscientists since it first appeared. These mirror neurons and their pathways form the basis for learning by imitation and for understanding the actions of others; they have been called “

The mirror neuron system also rests

Brain Structure and Function, 2016
The mirror neuron system (MNS) is a brain network that has been associated with the understanding of the actions performed by others. The main areas of the brain that are considered as belonging to the MNS are the rostral part of the inferior parietal lobe (IPL) and the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG).

The mirror-neurons system: data and models

2007
In this chapter we discuss the mirror-neurons system, a cortical network of areas that enables individuals to understand the meaning of actions performed by others through the activation of internal representations, which motorically code for the observed actions.

The mirror neuron system and action recognition

Brain and Language, 2004
Mirror neurons, first described in the rostral part of monkey ventral premotor cortex (area F5), discharge both when the animal performs a goal-directed hand action and when it observes another individual performing the same or a similar action. More recently, in the same area mirror neurons responding to the observation of mouth actions have been also

Mapping the Mirror Neuron System in Neurosurgery

World Neurosurgery, 2015
Brain mapping is considered an important approach in neurosurgery to achieve better functional outcomes. The mirror neuron system (MNS) is a brain network implicated in understanding of action and imitation. No previous study has focused on identifying and monitoring the function of the MNS during the perioperative period in brain lesions.
