... of F5. These studies showed that most F5 neurons code specific actions, rather than the single movements that form them. F5 neurons were thus subdivided into several action classes, for example, ‘grasping’, ‘holding’ or ‘tearing’ neurons [30]. Many F5 neurons respond to the presentation of visual st ...

... Although thin unmyelinated fibres are metabolically expensive (because of the increased capacitance of the membrane compared with myelinated fibres) they still are very common in the brain. One may thus wonder—given the importance of accurate timing and speed for survival—why the brain spends energy ...

... In Ferraina, et al (2000), the authors purport to show that parietal region PEc is a visuomotor region, rather than a somatosensory region, as widely believed.

... The discovery of mirror neurons owes as much to serendipity as to skill. In the 1980s, Rizzolatti and his colleagues had found that some neurons in an area of macaque monkeys' premotor cortex called F5 fired when the monkeys did things like reach for or bite a peanut. The researchers wanted to learn ...

With that being said, several studies ...

Brain–computer interface

A brain–computer interface (BCI), sometimes called a mind-machine interface (MMI), direct neural interface (DNI), or brain–machine interface (BMI), is a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device. BCIs are often directed at assisting, augmenting, or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions.Research on BCIs began in the 1970s at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) under a grant from the National Science Foundation, followed by a contract from DARPA. The papers published after this research also mark the first appearance of the expression brain–computer interface in scientific literature.The field of BCI research and development has since focused primarily on neuroprosthetics applications that aim at restoring damaged hearing, sight and movement. Thanks to the remarkable cortical plasticity of the brain, signals from implanted prostheses can, after adaptation, be handled by the brain like natural sensor or effector channels.Following years of animal experimentation, the first neuroprosthetic devices implanted in humans appeared in the mid-1990s.
