The premotor cortex is the region of the frontal lobe just anterior to the primary motor cortex (M1). It plans and sequences movements, integrates sensory-guided action, and — in the ventral premotor area — contains mirror neurons.
Key Functions
- •Movement planning — prepares actions before execution
- •Sensory-motor integration — links perception to action
- •Mirror neurons — fire when observing and performing actions
- •Sequencing — coordinates multi-step movements
In ONDA Life
Part 6 describes the "Mirror Neuron System (Premotor Cortex)" as "your biological Wi-Fi" — training the ability to instantaneously read the intentions and states of others through micro-expressions and gestures.
