Abstract
⺠Slow event-related fMRI design isolates visuomotor planning network. ⺠Visual cortex encoding of obstacles is suppressed during grasp planning. ⺠Concurrent IPS activity suggests top-down parietal control of visual cortex activity. ⺠Suppressing obstacle representations provides for an efficient avoidance mechanism. ⺠Unifies understanding of PPC involvement in action planning and directing attention.
