Emotional Mirrors in the Rat’s Anterior Cingulate Cortex

Maria Carrillo, Yinging Han, Filippo Migliorati, Ming Liu, Valeria Gazzola, Christian Keysers

The paper identifies mirror-like neurons in the rat's anterior cingulate cortex that encode both self-experienced pain and witnessed pain in others, but not fear.
