Role of the Supplementary Motor Area and the Right Premotor Cortex in the Coordination of Bimanual Finger Movements

Actions or hand-object interactions? Human inferior frontal cortex and action observation.

TL;DR: Fast, event-related fMRI was used to address the question of whether cells in macaque ventral premotor cortex respond to observation or production of specific hand-object interactions in response to realized goals of observed prehensile actions.

Anterior temporal lobes mediate semantic representation: mimicking semantic dementia by using rTMS in normal participants.

TL;DR: It is shown that temporary disruption to neural processing in the ATL produces a selective semantic impairment leading to significant slowing in both picture naming and word comprehension but not to other equally demanding, nonsemantic cognitive tasks.
