Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Cognition

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mirror neuron, Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Communication and Premotor cortex. Her research integrates issues of Speech recognition, Speech perception, Motor theory of speech perception, Imitation and Motor cognition in her study of Mirror neuron. Her Imitation learning study in the realm of Imitation interacts with subjects such as Social organization.

Her Motor cognition research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Space, Stress, Common coding theory and Comprehension. Her study in Cognitive psychology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Stimulus and Visual perception, Perception. Her work deals with themes such as Speech shadowing, Speech production, Articulatory gestures, Gesture and Neurocomputational speech processing, which intersect with Communication.

Her most cited work include:

  • The mirror-neuron system. (3156 citations)
  • The mirror neuron system. (2908 citations)
  • Speech listening specifically modulates the excitability of tongue muscles: a TMS study. (685 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Mirror neuron, Cognitive psychology, Communication and Motor system. Her Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Premotor cortex and Action observation. Laila Craighero interconnects Electrophysiology, Broca's area, Representation, Speech production and Motor cognition in the investigation of issues within Mirror neuron.

Her research in Cognitive psychology intersects with topics in Visual perception, Perception, Stimulus and Cognition, Priming. In her study, Speech shadowing, Speech recognition, Neurocomputational speech processing and Motor theory of speech perception is inextricably linked to Gesture, which falls within the broad field of Communication. Her Motor system study deals with Transcranial magnetic stimulation intersecting with Observer.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (32.00%)
  • Mirror neuron (33.33%)
  • Cognitive psychology (30.67%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Cognitive psychology (30.67%)
  • Kinematics (13.33%)
  • Communication (28.00%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary scientific interests are in Cognitive psychology, Kinematics, Communication, Motor system and Cognition. Her studies in Cognitive psychology integrate themes in fields like Frontal lobe and Embodied cognition. Laila Craighero works mostly in the field of Motor system, limiting it down to topics relating to Perception and, in certain cases, Broca's area and Speech production.

Laila Craighero combines subjects such as Foot and Motor control with her study of Cognition. The various areas that she examines in her Priming study include Mirror neuron, Motor cognition and Physical medicine and rehabilitation. Her Mirror neuron study often links to related topics such as Action observation.

Between 2011 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Leadership in orchestra emerges from the causal relationships of movement kinematics. (81 citations)
  • The contribution of the frontal lobe to the perception of speech (29 citations)
  • Activity in ventral premotor cortex is modulated by vision of own hand in action. (13 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Neuroscience
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Cognition

Cognitive psychology, Perception, Neuroscience, Premotor cortex and Primary motor cortex are her primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Stimulus, Frontal lobe and Broca's area in addition to Perception. Her Stimulus research incorporates elements of Motor system and Transcranial magnetic stimulation.

Her Transcranial magnetic stimulation research includes elements of Communication and Observer, Computer vision. In general Neuroscience, her work in Frontal cortex, Stimulation and Frontal regions is often linked to Population and Flash linking many areas of study. Her research brings together the fields of Macaque and Premotor cortex.
