Effects of action observation on corticospinal excitability: muscle specificity, direction, and timing of the mirror response (2014)
Journal Article

Many human behaviours and pathologies have been attributed to the putative mirror neuron system, a neural system that is active during both the observation and execution of actions. While there are now a very large number of papers on the mirror neur...
