Ann N Y Acad Sci 1252:318-24. 2012..Here, we review this new work. We conclude by providing some questions for future directions...
Music and mirror neurons: from motion to 'e'motionIstvan Molnar-Szakacs
Center for the Biology of Creativity, Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90024, USA
Soc Cogn Affect Neurosci 1:235-41. 2006..We propose that these aspects of musical experience may be mediated by the human mirror neuron system...
Do you see what I mean? Corticospinal excitability during observation of culture-specific gesturesIstvan Molnar-Szakacs
Center for the Biology of Creativity, Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior, University of California at Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California, USA Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, UCLA, Los Angeles, California, USA FPR UCLA Center for Culture, Brain and Development, UCLA, Los Angeles, California, USA Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, UCLA, Los Angeles, California, USA
PLoS ONE 2:e626. 2007..The latter result cannot be interpreted simply as an effect of ethnic ingroup familiarity. Thus, a likely explanation of these findings is that motor resonance is modulated by interacting biological and cultural factors...
Observing complex action sequences: The role of the fronto-parietal mirror neuron systemIstvan Molnar-Szakacs
UCLA Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Neuroimage 33:923-35. 2006..We also discuss the results in terms of the links between mirror neurons, language development and evolution...
Right-hemisphere motor facilitation by self-descriptive personality-trait wordsIstvan Molnar-Szakacs
UCLA Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Eur J Neurosci 21:2000-6. 2005..The results are discussed in terms of the notion that the right hemisphere plays a dominant role in both self-relevant processing and the processing of affective stimuli...
Functional segregation within pars opercularis of the inferior frontal gyrus: evidence from fMRI studies of imitation and action observationIstvan Molnar-Szakacs
Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, 660 Charles Young Dr South, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Cereb Cortex 15:986-94. 2005..This large dataset suggests a functional parcellation of the IFG that we discuss in terms of human mirror areas and the computational motor control architecture of internal models...
Self-face recognition activates a frontoparietal "mirror" network in the right hemisphere: an event-related fMRI studyLucina Q Uddin
Department of Psychology, University of California, Box 951563, B627 Franz Hall, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Neuroimage 25:926-35. 2005..We provide a model that reconciles these findings and previously published work to account for the modulations in these two networks previously implicated in social cognition...
Exploring the contributions of premotor and parietal cortex to spatial compatibility using image-guided TMSLisa Koski
Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, Neuropsychiatric Institute, Los Angeles, CA 90095 7085, USA
Neuroimage 24:296-305. 2005..We conclude that the left premotor cortex is one of the cortical regions responsible for overriding automatic stimulus-response associations...
rTMS to the right inferior parietal lobule disrupts self-other discriminationLucina Q Uddin
Department of Psychology, University of California, Los Angeles, 90095, USA
Soc Cogn Affect Neurosci 1:65-71. 2006..It appears that activity in the right IPL is essential to the task, thus providing for the first time evidence for a causal relation between a human brain area and this high-level cognitive capacity...

Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, Neuropsychiatric Institute, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, California, USA
PLoS Biol 3:e79. 2005..To ascribe an intention is to infer a forthcoming new goal, and this is an operation that the motor system does automatically...
Beyond superior temporal cortex: intersubject correlations in narrative speech comprehensionStephen M Wilson
Ahmanson Lovelace Brain Mapping Center, Brain Research Institute, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA
Cereb Cortex 18:230-42. 2008..This extended network of regions may be important for higher-level linguistic processes, and interfaces with extralinguistic cognitive, affective, and interpersonal systems...
Self in time: imagined self-location influences neural activity related to mental time travelShahar Arzy
