The neuroscience community has recently exploited advances in brain imaging to understand cerebral representation of many cognitive functions. The proposed study will expand our knowledge of brain-behaviour relationships, another key area of cognitive neuroscience research. Its successful funding and completion will increase Australia's standing as a major contributor to world research outcomes in this innovative and important field, and place Australia at its forefront. The investigator's access to advanced brain imaging and to the unique population of individuals with mirror movements, combined with expertise and experience in neuropsychology and brain imaging, places the research in an internationally competitive position.

神经科学界最近利用脑成像的进展来了解许多认知功能的大脑表征。这项拟议中的研究将扩大我们对大脑行为关系的了解，这是认知神经科学研究的另一个关键领域。该项目的成功资助和完成将提高澳大利亚作为这一创新和重要领域世界研究成果主要贡献者的地位，并使澳大利亚走在前列。研究人员获得先进的脑成像和具有镜像运动的独特人群，结合神经心理学和脑成像方面的专业知识和经验，使研究处于国际竞争地位。
