What vs. where in touch: an fMRI s

ventral stream for form, color, and features, and a dorsal stream for spatial characteristics and motion. We investigated whether similar Bonda et al., 1996; Reed et al., 2004). The inferior parietal areas of functions. Circumscribed damage to the inferior parietal area also produced TOR deficits separate from low-level tactile perception and supramodal spatial processing deficits, thereby demonstrating precentral frontal gyrus; poCG, postcentral gyrus; SM1, primary sensor-imotor cortex (pre- and post-central gyrus); IPL, inferior parietal lobule;SPL, superior parietal lobule; SII, secondary somatosensory cortex; MTG, middle temporal gyrus.The cortex is divided into multiple regions and distinct streams of information processing are defined by connections and operations within and between subsections of these areas (Caminiti et al., 1996). Two streams in cortical visual processing have been identified: a ventral stream for fine analysis of the visual scene into form, color, and features, and a dorsal stream for the coding of macaques appear to be somatosensory equivalents of visua
