Optic ataxia is defined as a spatial impairment of visually guided reaching, but it is typically accompanied by other visuomotor difficulties, notably a failure to scale the handgrip appropriately while reaching to grasp an object. This impaired gras... Read More about Impaired grasping in a patient with optic ataxia: Primary visuomotor deficit or secondary consequence of misreaching?.

Background Almost 15 years after its formulation, evidence for the neuro-functional dissociation between a dorsal action stream and a ventral perception stream in the human cerebral cortex is still based largely on neuropsychological case studies. To... Read More about FMRI Reveals a Dissociation between Grasping and Perceiving the Size of Real 3D Objects.
