Representation of Numerosity in Posterior Parietal Cortex [PDF]
Humans and animals appear to share a similar representation of number as an analog magnitude on an internal, subjective scale. Neurological and neurophysiological data suggest that posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is a critical component of the circuits ...

Premotor and Posterior Parietal Cortex Activity is Increased for Slow, as well as Fast Walking Poststroke: An fNIRS Study [PDF]
Background and Purpose. The ability to change gait speeds is important for interacting with the surrounding environment. Gait speed modulation poststroke is often impaired and is related to decreased walking independence after stroke. Assessment of brain

Posterior Parietal Cortex Guides Visual Decisions in Rats [PDF]
Neurons in putative decision-making structures can reflect both sensory and decision signals, making their causal role in decisions unclear. Here, we tested whether rat posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is causal for processing visual sensory signals or ...

Spatio-temporal updating in the left posterior parietal cortex. [PDF]
Adopting an unusual posture can sometimes give rise to paradoxical experiences. For example, the subjective ordering of successive unseen tactile stimuli delivered to the two arms can be affected when people cross them.

Cognitive Functions of the Posterior Parietal Cortex [PDF]
The posterior parietal cortex has traditionally been associated with visuo-spatial perception and spatial attention, however, accumulating evidence indicates that it is involved in a much wider range of cognitive functions. The articles included in the E-book review experimental data and theoretical considerations, as well as reviews of recent work ...

Posterior parietal cortex [PDF]
The posterior parietal cortex, along with temporal and prefrontal cortices, is one of the three major associative regions in the cortex of the mammalian brain. It is situated between the visual cortex at the caudal pole of the brain and the somatosensory cortex just behind the central sulcus.
