Gaze-Centered Updating of Visual Space in Human Parietal Cortex

TL;DR: Using event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging, an analogous bilateral region in the human PPC is identified that shows contralateral topography for memory-guided eye movements and arm movements that shows dynamically updates the spatial goals for action in a gaze-centered frame.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integration of Target and Effector Information in Human Posterior Parietal Cortex for the Planning of Action

TL;DR: Not only do these regions code target location, but they also appear to integrate target selection with effector selection, consistent with previous clinical and behavioral studies showing that each hand is more effective in directing movements to targets in ipsilateral visual space.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oscillatory Activity in Human Parietal and Occipital Cortex Shows Hemispheric Lateralization and Memory Effects in a Delayed Double-Step Saccade Task

TL;DR: Results provide further support for a topographic organization for delayed saccades in human parietal and occipital cortex and Adaptive spatial filtering techniques localized the neural sources of the directionally selective power changes in parieto-occipital areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-Dimensional Transformations for Goal-Directed Action

TL;DR: It is argued that the intrinsic (primarily rotational) 3-D geometry of the eye-head-reach systems determines the spatial relationship between extrinsic goals and effector commands, and therefore the required transformations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulations in oscillatory activity with amplitude asymmetry can produce cognitively relevant event-related responses

TL;DR: It is concluded that the ERFs modulated by working memory are likely to be directly produced by the modulations in oscillatory alpha activity, which is not attributable to an additive process reflecting memory maintenance per se but, rather, is a consequence of how attentional resources are allocated.
