In a recent study published in the journal Cell, researchers utilized a genetically encoded mirror-TRAP strategy to investigate the functional importance of aggression-mirroring neurons. Social ...

Back in the 1990s, neuroscientists at the University of Parma identified cells in the premotor cortex of monkeys that had an unusual response pattern. They were activated when the monkeys performed a ...

The concept has since been studied in humans, including infants, to understand how the early mirror neuron system functions. From what we know, parent-infant interactions heavily influence development ...
