Over the past two decades single cell recordings in primates and neuroimaging experiments in humans have uncovered the key properties of visuo-motor mirror neurons located in monkey premotor cortex and parietal cortices as well as homologous areas in the human inferior frontal and inferior parietal cortices which presumably house neurons with similar response properties. One of the most interes...
