A modality-specific somatosensory area within the insula of the rhesus monkey
TLDR
Results indicate that a major portion of Ig is a somatic processing area exclusively, with units that have large and often bilateral receptive fields, consistent with the view that this area serves as a higher-order, modality-specific link in the somatosensory-limbic pathway.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Circuitry and functional aspects of the insular lobe in primates including humans
TL;DR: The progress made in understanding the insula in the decade following an earlier review is examined and confirmation has been given to theinsula as a visceral sensory area, visceral motor area, motor association area, vestibular area, and language area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cortical pathways to the mammalian amygdala
TL;DR: There is anatomical evidence which suggests that there are important differences in the extent of convergence of cortical projections in the primate versus the nonprimate amygdala.

Perirhinal and parahippocampal cortices of the macaque monkey: Cortical afferents
Wendy L. Suzuki,David G. Amaral +1 more
TL;DR: The organization of cortical inputs to the macaque monkey perirhinal and parahippocampal cortices is investigated by placing discrete injections of the retrograde tracers fast blue, diamidino yellow, and wheat germ agglutinin conjugated to horseradish peroxidase throughout these areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new brain region for coordinating speech articulation
TL;DR: All patients with articulatory planning deficits had lesions that included a discrete region of the left precentral gyms of the insula, a cortical area beneath the frontal and temporal lobes that seems to be specialized for the motor planning of speech.

Experiencing oneself vs another person as being the cause of an action: the neural correlates of the experience of agency.
Chlöé Farrer,Chris D. Frith +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the anterior insula is concerned with the integration of all the concordant multimodal sensory signals associated with voluntary movements, and the inferior parietal cortex represents movements in an allocentric coding system that can be applied to the actions of others as well as the self.

Visual properties of neurons in inferotemporal cortex of the Macaque.
TL;DR: There are several lines of evidence suggesting that a possible site for further processing of visual information and perhaps even for storage of such information might, in the monkey, be inferotemporal cortexthe cortex on the inferior convexity of the temporal lobe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulus-selective properties of inferior temporal neurons in the macaque
TL;DR: The first systematic survey of the responses of IT neurons to both simple stimuli and highly complex stimuli indicates that there may be specialized mechanisms for the analysis of faces in IT cortex.
Journal ArticleDOI
A memory system in the monkey
TL;DR: A neural model is presented, based largely on evidence from studies in monkeys, postulating that coded representation of stimuli are stored in the higher-order sensory areas of the cortex whenever stimulus activation of these areas also triggers a cortico-limbo-thalamo-cortical circuit.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insula of the old world monkey. II: Afferent cortical input and comments on the claustrum.
TL;DR: The afferent connections of the insula in the rhesus monkey were studied with axonal transport methods and revealed labeled neurons in the prefrontal cortex, the lateral orbital region, the frontopariefal operculum, the cingulate gyrus and adjacent medial cortex, and the posterior parietal lobe.

Cortical connections of the somatosensory fields of the lateral sulcus of macaques: evidence for a corticolimbic pathway for touch.
TL;DR: The ipsilateral corticocortical connections of the somatosensory fields of the lateral sulcus of macaques were examined with both anterograde and retrograde axonal transport methods to identify field of interest prior to the injection of the tracer substance.
