The Posterior Parietal Cortex as Integrative Hub for Whisker Sensorimotor Information

Highlights • We provide an overview of existing literature on PPC function across species (rodent, monkey, human) • We summarize and illustrate existing data on input/output anatomical projections for PPC. • We highlight the potential role of PPC for sensorimotor integration during rodent whisker-gu...
