DESCRIPTION:The Feindel Brain and Mind Seminar Series will advance the visi
 on of Dr. William Feindel (1918–2014)\, Former Director of the Neuro (1972
 –1984)\, to constantly bridge the clinical and research realms. The talks 
 will highlight the latest advances and discoveries in neuropsychology\, co
 gnitive neuroscience\, and neuroimaging.\n\nSpeakers will include scientis
 ts from across The Neuro\, as well as colleagues and collaborators locally
  and from around the world. The series is intended to provide a virtual fo
 rum for scientists and trainees to continue to foster interdisciplinary ex
 changes on the mechanisms\, diagnosis and treatment of brain and cognitive
  disorders.\n\n\nRegister for In-Person\n\nTo watch online\, click here\n
 \nHost: Justine Cléry\n\n\nFrom Agents to Actions\, to Interactions\, to S
 ocieties: Primates’ Brain Networks for Social Processing\n\nAbstract: Reco
 gnizing agents\, their actions\, and their interactions is essential for u
 nderstanding the world around us. Using functional Magnetic Resonance Imag
 ing\, we discovered in the macaque monkey brain a network of areas centere
 d on the medial and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex that is selectively en
 gaged in social interaction analysis. Its extent and location suggest that
  this function is an evolutionary forerunner of human mind-reading capabil
 ities. A comparative fMRI investigation in humans additionally revealed wh
 ich neural strategies adapted to the needs of each species\, and emphasize
 d human interest in understanding actions of our peers directed towards ob
 jects. Together these studies show how our primate brains continuously dec
 ode the complex visual scenes unwinding in front of us: both the nature of
  material entities\, such as individuals and objects\, and their immateria
 l interactions.\n\nJulia Sliwa\n\nCNRS Investigator\,Paris Brain Institute

 estigator at the Paris Brain Institute in 2019\, where she leads the team 
 Neurophysiology of Social Cognition. Previously\, she trained as a Kavli P
 ost-Doctoral Fellow and an HFSP Post-Doctoral Fellow at The Rockefeller Un
 iversity in the Laboratory of Pr. Freiwald. She received her PhD degree fr
 om the University of Lyon under the guidance of Prs. Wirth and Duhamel. Dr
