[Buddha-l] Mirror neurons, anyone?

Here's the link to the conference (on "neuroesthetics"), borrowed
from another list:

Abstracts of the papers below. If you only have time to hear one
paper, go with Iacoboni's (if I do attend, I plan to ask him
about the necessity for positing "mirror neurons" as a special
class of cells).

Note also the papers that claim that so-called mirror neurons are
involved in the development of empathy and other culturally
relevant phenomena.
