The human frontal oculomotor cortical areas contribute asymmetrically to motor planning in a gap saccade task.
BACKGROUND: Saccadic eye movements are used to rapidly align the fovea with the image of objects of interest in peripheral vision. We have recently shown that in children there is a high preponderance of quick latency but poorly planned saccades that consistently fall short of the target goal. The c...
