Structure in Neural Activity during Observed and Executed Movements Is Shared at the Neural Population Level, Not in Single NeuronsJiang et al.Cell ReportsAugust 11, 2020In BriefWe can understand actions and learn movements by observing them. These processes are thought to involve neurons in motor cortex that are active during both movement observation and execution. Jiang et al. find that, when observing and executing movements, motor cortical neurons exhibit shared structure through consistent covariation and dynamics. Full-Text PDF Open Access
