Publications
The simulating social mind: the role of the mirror neuron system and simulation in the social and communicative deficits of autism spectrum disordersLindsay M Oberman
Center for Brain and Cognition, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA
Psychol Bull 133:310-27. 2007..Additionally, the authors suggest that dysfunctional simulation mechanisms may underlie the social and communicative deficits seen in individuals with autism spectrum disorders...
Modulation of mu suppression in children with autism spectrum disorders in response to familiar or unfamiliar stimuli: the mirror neuron hypothesisLindsay M Oberman
Center for Brain and Cognition, UC San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 0109, United States
Neuropsychologia 46:1558-65. 2008..These findings suggest that the MNS responds to observed actions in individuals with ASD, but only when individuals can identify in some personal way with the stimuli...
Developmental changes in mu suppression to observed and executed actions in autism spectrum disordersLindsay M Oberman
Berenson Allen Center for Noninvasive Brain Stimulation, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, 330 Brookline Avenue, Boston, MA 02215, USA
Soc Cogn Affect Neurosci 8:300-4. 2013....
mGluR antagonists and GABA agonists as novel pharmacological agents for the treatment of autism spectrum disordersLindsay M Oberman
Harvard Medical School, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, 330 Brookline Avenue, KS 158, Boston, MA 02215, USA
Expert Opin Investig Drugs 21:1819-25. 2012..Though preliminary data are extremely promising, results from ongoing larger, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies will give a more complete understanding of the efficacy and side-effect profile related to these drugs...
Slow echo: facial EMG evidence for the delay of spontaneous, but not voluntary, emotional mimicry in children with autism spectrum disordersLindsay M Oberman
Center for Brain and Cognition, UC San Diego, USA
Dev Sci 12:510-20. 2009..This delay occurred across different expressions and presentation durations. We relate these findings to the literature on mirroring and temporal dynamics of social interaction...
Face to face: blocking facial mimicry can selectively impair recognition of emotional expressionsLindsay M Oberman
University of California San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA
Soc Neurosci 2:167-78. 2007..These findings suggest that facial mimicry differentially contributes to recognition of specific facial expressions, thus allowing for more refined predictions from embodied cognition theories...
EEG evidence for mirror neuron dysfunction in autism spectrum disordersLindsay M Oberman
Center for Brain and Cognition, UC San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 0109, USA
Brain Res Cogn Brain Res 24:190-8. 2005..The ASD group showed significant mu suppression to self-performed hand movements but not to observed hand movements. These results support the hypothesis of a dysfunctional mirror neuron system in high-functioning individuals with ASD...
The human mirror neuron system: a link between action observation and social skillsLindsay M Oberman
Center for Brain and Cognition, Department of Psychology, University of California San Diego, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla, CA 92093 0515, USA
Soc Cogn Affect Neurosci 2:62-6. 2007..These data suggest that the human MNS is specialized not only for processing animate stimuli, but specifically stimuli with social relevance...
Preliminary evidence for deficits in multisensory integration in autism spectrum disorders: the mirror neuron hypothesisLindsay M Oberman
University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, California, USA
Soc Neurosci 3:348-55. 2008....
What goads cigarette smokers to smoke? Neural adaptation and the mirror neuron systemJaime Owner A Pineda
Department of Cognitive Science, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA
Brain Res 1121:128-35. 2006..Such adaptations may inappropriately bias attention toward motivationally salient, addiction-related cues leading to more impulsive and addiction-related behaviors...
Single pulse TMS-induced modulations of resting brain neurodynamics encoded in EEG phaseCatherine Stamoulis
Department of Neurology, Harvard Medical School, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, MA 02215, USA
Brain Topogr 24:105-13. 2011..This is a novel result, as prior studies have reported only transient stimulation-related effects in the amplitude and frequency domains following single-pulse TMS...
Broken mirrors: a theory of autismVilayanur S Ramachandran
Center for Brain and Congnition, University of California, San Diego, USA
Sci Am 295:62-9. 2006
