Grasp-specific high-frequency broadband mirror neuron activity during reach-and-grasp movements in humans.

Published in Cerebral Cortex

Broadly congruent mirror neurons, responding to any grasp movement, and strictly congruent mirror neurons, responding only to specific grasp movements, have been reported in single-cell studies with primates. Delineating grasp properties in humans is essential to understand the human mirror neuron system with implications for behavior and social co...
