The complexity of processes occurring in the brain is an intriguing issue not just for scientists and medical doctors, but the humanity in general. The cortex ability to perceive and analyze an enormous amount of information in an instance of time, the par ...
Healthy human beings are aware of their current position space and are able to distinguish their own body from that of other persons or objects. This capability arises from a coupling of sensory information with cognitive processes, and leads to a represen ...
Navigation is defined as the capability of planning and performing a path from the current position towards a desired location. Different types, or strategies, of navigation are used by animals depending on the task they are trying to solve. Visible goals ...
Sensory processing, sensorimotor integration and motor control are amongst the most basic functions of the brain and yet our understanding of how the underlying neuronal networks operate and contribute to behaviour is very limited. The relative simplicity ...
Praxic functions are frequently altered following brain lesion, giving rise to apraxia - a complex pattern of impairments that has proven difficult to assess or interpret. Here we revisit a study on imitation of meaningless gestures in a patient with disco ...
A review of published brain-damaged patients showing delusional beliefs concerning the contralesional side of the body (somatoparaphrenia) is presented. Somatoparaphrenia has been reported, with a few exceptions, in right-brain-damaged patients, with motor ...
Imitation is a fundamental mechanism by which humans learn and understand the actions of others. This thesis addresses the low-level neural mechanisms underlying the imitation of meaningless gestures, using tools from computational neuroscience. We investi ...
Apraxia is a poorly understood disorder of voluntary movement that is not due to basic sensory, motor or cognitive deficits. We conducted a study on the imitation of meaningless gestures in apraxic patients with left fronto-temporo-parietal lesions. In a f ...
This abstract addresses the question of human imitation through convergent evidence from neuroscience. We look at deficits in imitation following brain lesion, such as apraxia. We believe that looking at how imitation is impaired can unveil its underlying ...
Imitation is the ability to recognize, learn and reproduce the actions of others. In addition to facilitating the transmission of knowledge and skills, it has been suggested that this fundamental cognitive capacity is at the origin of other human faculties ...
