Abstract
As part of our special issue on neurotechnology, we spoke with Richard Andersen, James G. Boswell Professor of Neuroscience at Caltech, about the discoveries that helped to establish the posterior parietal cortex as a key hub for intention and action planning. He looks back on decades of discoveries in the posterior parietal cortex and discusses how advances in neural recording, decoding and computation are reshaping our understanding of cognition.
作为神经技术特刊的一部分,我们采访了加州理工学院的詹姆斯·g·博斯韦尔(James G. Boswell)神经科学教授理查德·安德森(Richard Andersen),讨论了帮助确立后顶叶皮层作为意图和行动计划关键枢纽的发现。他回顾了几十年来在后顶叶皮层的发现,并讨论了神经记录、解码和计算方面的进步如何重塑我们对认知的理解。
期刊介绍:
Nature Neuroscience, a multidisciplinary journal, publishes papers of the utmost quality and significance across all realms of neuroscience. The editors welcome contributions spanning molecular, cellular, systems, and cognitive neuroscience, along with psychophysics, computational modeling, and nervous system disorders. While no area is off-limits, studies offering fundamental insights into nervous system function receive priority.
The journal offers high visibility to both readers and authors, fostering interdisciplinary communication and accessibility to a broad audience. It maintains high standards of copy editing and production, rigorous peer review, rapid publication, and operates independently from academic societies and other vested interests.
In addition to primary research, Nature Neuroscience features news and views, reviews, editorials, commentaries, perspectives, book reviews, and correspondence, aiming to serve as the voice of the global neuroscience community.
