The anterior lateral motor cortex, an area of the brain associated with action planning, plays a major role in premature actions such as when a person "jumps the gun", or starts to run before a race starts.
Researchers have developed a new model that represents the planning of movement from seeing an object to grasping it.
The anterior lateral motor cortex appears to play a significant role in context-based decision making.
Researchers have identified how two types of neurons divide the labor to plan and initiate movements.
According to a new study, distant areas of the brain are required to help store a single memory.
