Mirror neurons

• daedalus_f 4y ago
  To quote wikipedia: To date, no widely accepted neural or computational models have been put forward to describe how mirror neuron activity supports cognitive functions. There’s lots of guff in the media and lots of speculation in the discussion section of papers about what they might be important for in broad hand-wavy terms, but really we don’t have a good understanding of them.
