[PDF][PDF] Neural variability in premotor cortex is modulated by trial history and predicts behavioral performance

E Marcos, P Pani, E Brunamonti, G Deco, S Ferraina… - Neuron, 2013 - cell.com
In the study of decision making, emphasis is placed on different forms of perceptual integration,
while the influence of other factors, such as memory, is ignored. In addition, it is believed …

Neural correlates of cognitive control of reaching movements in the dorsal premotor cortex of rhesus monkeys

G Mirabella, P Pani, S Ferraina - Journal of …, 2011 - journals.physiology.org
Canceling a pending movement is a hallmark of voluntary behavioral control because it
allows us to quickly adapt to unattended changes either in the external environment or in our …

Heterogeneous attractor cell assemblies for motor planning in premotor cortex

M Mattia, P Pani, G Mirabella, S Costa… - Journal of …, 2013 - Soc Neuroscience
Cognitive functions like motor planning rely on the concerted activity of multiple neuronal
assemblies underlying still elusive computational strategies. During reaching tasks, we …

Grasping execution and grasping observation activity of single neurons in the macaque anterior intraparietal area

P Pani, T Theys, MC Romero… - Journal of Cognitive …, 2014 - direct.mit.edu
Primates use vision to guide their actions in everyday life. Visually guided object grasping is
known to rely on a network of cortical areas located in the parietal and premotor cortex. We …

[HTML][HTML] Alpha-and beta-band oscillations subserve different processes in reactive control of limb movements

P Pani, F Di Bello, E Brunamonti, V D'Andrea… - Frontiers in behavioral …, 2014 - frontiersin.org
… ; Pierpaolo Pani and Stefano Ferraina acquired the data; Fabio Di Bello, Valeria D’Andrea,
Pierpaolo Pani, Emiliano … Pierpaolo Pani and Fabio Di Bello contributed equally to this work. …

[HTML][HTML] Visual salience of the stop signal affects the neuronal dynamics of controlled inhibition

P Pani, F Giarrocco, M Giamundo, R Montanari… - Scientific reports, 2018 - nature.com
The voluntary control of movement is often tested by using the countermanding, or stop-signal
task that sporadically requires the suppression of a movement in response to an incoming …

[PDF][PDF] Dorsal premotor cortex neurons signal the level of choice difficulty during logical decisions

V Mione, E Brunamonti, P Pani, A Genovesio… - Cell Reports, 2020 - cell.com
Studies on the neuronal correlates of decision making have demonstrated that the continuous
flow of sensorial information is integrated by sensorimotor brain areas in order to select …

Inhibitory control of reaching movements in humans

G Mirabella, P Pani, M Paré, S Ferraina - Experimental Brain Research, 2006 - Springer
Behavioral flexibility provides a very large repertoire of actions and strategies, however, it
carries a cost: a potential interference between different options. The voluntary control of …

Context influences on the preparation and execution of reaching movements

G Mirabella, P Pani, S Ferraina - Cognitive neuropsychology, 2008 - Taylor & Francis
The ability of rapidly adapting our motor behaviour in order to face the unpredictable changes
in the surrounding environment is fundamental for survival. To achieve such a high level of …

Substance use and quality of life over 12 months among buprenorphine maintenance-treated and methadone maintenance-treated heroin-addicted patients

I Maremmani, PP Pani, M Pacini, G Perugi - Journal of substance abuse …, 2007 - Elsevier
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of methadone treatment and
buprenorphine treatment on retention in treatment, urine drug testing results, psychiatric status, …
