Neural Correlates of Learning and Trajectory Planning in the Posterior Parietal Cortex

Neural Correlates of Learning and Trajectory Planning in the Posterior Parietal Cortex

The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) is thought to play an important role in the planning of visually-guided reaching movements. However, the relative roles of the various subdivisions of the PPC in this function are still poorly understood. For example, studies of dorsal area 5 point to a representa...
