A new study sheds light on the internal workings of brain regions involved in recognizing and remembering objects.
Researchers report neurons in the PPC encode entire hand shapes. The findings are helping with the development of neuroprosthetic devices.
Implanting neuroprosthetics into the posterior parietal cortex allows a paralyzed man to control a robotic arm through thought, a new study reports.
Researchers discover a population of neurons in the PPC of rats which process information in a way that supports multiple behaviors at once.
A new neuroimaging study finds the brain's structure is related to how intensely people perceive pain.
A new study offers insight into how a well-connected core brain network in the lateral prefrontal cortex and posterior parietal cortex, help coordinate the brain’s response to novel cognitive challenges.
The lateral intraparietal area (LIP), a region of the brain known to play a vital role in spatial and visual processing also has a parallel function, categorizing visual information, a new study suggests.
