About
Dylan Cooke is an Associate Professor at Simon Fraser University in Canada. His research focuses on the neural mechanisms underlying tool use, motor skill learning, and consciousness, particularly during anesthesia. Recent publications include investigations into the functional characterization of the fronto-parietal reaching and grasping network and studies on the dependence of parietal cortex areas on motor cortex for movement generation.

Motor cortex and anterior and posterior parietal cortex form a sensorimotor integration network. We tested the extent to which parietal areas could initiate movements independent of M1. Our findings support the contention that, although areas 2, 5L, PF, and PFG are highly dependent on M1 to produce movement, area 1 may constitute a parallel corticospinal pathway that can function somewhat independently of M1. A similar functional architecture may underlie dexterous tool use in humans.
