Intentional maps in posterior parietal cortex. [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Neuroscience, 2002
▪ Abstract  The posterior parietal cortex (PPC), historically believed to be a sensory structure, is now viewed as an area important for sensory-motor integration. Among its functions is the forming of intentions, that is, high-level cognitive plans for movement.

Hand Shape Representations in the Human Posterior Parietal Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2015
Humans shape their hands to grasp, manipulate objects, and to communicate. From nonhuman primate studies, we know that visual and motor properties for grasps can be derived from cells in the posterior parietal cortex (PPC).

The mouse posterior parietal cortex: anatomy and functions

open access: yesNeuroscience Research, 2019
In recent years, the number of studies on decision-making in mice has increased dramatically. Many of these studies focus on the posterior parietal cortex (PPC), an area that has been implicated in sensory and multisensory processing, navigation, motion planning, and decision-making.

Stimulation of distinct parietal locations differentiates frontal versus hippocampal network involvement in memory formation

open access: yesCurrent Research in Neurobiology, 2022
Adjacent regions of parietal cortex are thought to affiliate with distinct large-scale networks and thereby make different contributions to memory formation.

Posterior parietal cortex predicts upcoming movement in dynamic sensorimotor control

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022
Significance Most studies in sensorimotor neurophysiology have utilized reactive movements to stationary goals pre-defined by sensory cues, but this approach is fundamentally incapable of determining whether the observed neural activity reflects current ...

Comparative metabolic profiling of posterior parietal cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus in conditioned fear memory

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2021
Fear conditioning and retrieval are suitable models to investigate the biological basis of various mental disorders. Hippocampus and amygdala neurons consolidate conditioned stimulus (CS)-dependent fear memory.

Microstructural damage of the posterior corpus callosum contributes to the clinical severity of neglect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
One theory to account for neglect symptoms in patients with right focal damage invokes a release of inhibition of the right parietal cortex over the left parieto-frontal circuits, by disconnection mechanism.

Does shape discrimination by the mouth activate the parietal and occipital lobes? - near-infrared spectroscopy study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
A cross-modal association between somatosensory tactile sensation and parietal and occipital activities during Braille reading was initially discovered in tests with blind subjects, with sighted and blindfolded healthy subjects used as controls. However,
