Like in macaque, the caudal portion of the human superior parietal lobule (SPL) plays a key
role in a series of perceptive, visuomotor and somatosensory processes. Here, we review …

The motor system displays strong changes in neural activity during action preparation. In the
past decades, several techniques, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) …

Humans show a preference for using the right hand over the left for tasks and activities of
everyday life. While experimental work in non-human primates has identified the neural …

Despite the consolidated belief that the macaque superior parietal lobule (SPL) is entirely
occupied by Brodmann's area 5, recent data show that macaque SPL also hosts a large …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) based methods are emerging as a unique
approach to evaluate in real-time brain electrical activity in healthy and pathological …

Skillful goal-directed manual actions such as gras** and manipulating objects are
supported by a large sensorimotor network. Within this network, the ventral premotor cortex …

In the macaque, the posterior parietal area V6A is involved in the control of all phases of
reach-to-grasp actions: the transport phase, given that reaching neurons are sensitive to the …

Interactive behaviors rely on the operation of several processes allowing the control of
actions, including their selection, withholding, and cancellation. The corticospinal system …

Action preparation is characterized by a set of complex and distributed processes that occur
in multiple brain areas. Interestingly, dual-coil transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a …

Dual-site transcranial magnetic stimulation (ds-TMS) is well suited to investigate the causal
effect of distant brain regions on the primary motor cortex, both at rest and during motor …
