Sentence examples for cortex of the monkey from inspiring English sources

On the one hand, it can access a rich data set of synaptic connectivity in the cerebral cortex of the monkey, an animal that lacks many of the complicated behaviors of interest.

And, in fact, some experiments have shown how the visual receptive fields of bimodal neurons in the posterior parietal cortex of the monkey, which code hand movement in a similar way to F4 neurons, may be modified by actions that entail the use of instruments.

From the discovery of the mirror neurons in the ventral premotor cortex of the monkey's brain, a human embodied model of interindividual relationship based on simulation processes has been advanced, according to which we tend to embody spontaneously the other individuals' behavior when interacting.

Mirror neurons have been found in the ventral premotor and inferior parietal cortex of the monkey.

Third, we found a reduction of [11C]CHIBA-1001 binding in the frontal cortex of the monkey brain after subchronic administration of PCP.

Direct neural correlates of elapsed time in the subsecond range have been found in posterior parietal cortex of the monkey [43], [44].

Cholinergic depletion was observed in the entorhinal cortex of the monkeys with fornix transection alone, although it is unlikely that the entorhinal cortex is the key component in producing severe learning impairments because selective entorhinal ablation produces only mild impairment in scene learning (Charles et al. 2004).

To rule out the possibility that degradation of amyloid-β stimulates a compensatory increase in amyloid-β production by the brain, we measured APP in the prefrontal cortex of the monkeys dosed with HSA-hNEPv tweeklyeekly at 0, 50 50 and 143 mg/kg for 1 month.

While this hypothesis can be traced back as far as William James [17], its interest has been renewed by the discovery of 'mirror neurons' in the ventral premotor cortex of the macaque monkey [18], [19].

Empirical support for this comes from the discovery of mirror neurons in the premotor and inferior parietal cortex of the macaque monkey responding to perception and execution of similar actions [6] [9] and the observation of human premotor and inferior parietal responses to observation and execution of actions [10] [16].

Thus, a secondary aim of the current experiment was to develop a technique for producing neurotoxic lesions within the prefrontal cortex of the macaque monkey.
