Monotonic Coding of Numerosity in Macaque Lateral Intraparietal Area
As any child knows, the first step in counting is summing up individual elements, yet the brain mechanisms responsible for this process remain obscure. Here we show, for the first time, that a population of neurons in the lateral intraparietal area of monkeys encodes the total number of elements wit...
