Mirror neurons
Mirror neurons are special brain cells that work when you do something and also when you watch someone else do the same thing. This mirroring mechanism is considered to enable others to understand the other actions, intentions and feelings of others, which forms the neural base for sympathy and social feeling. Mirror neuron systems are found in areas such as premotor cortex and inferior parietal lobules, where they facilitate copying learning and emotional resonance. Their dysfunction has been linked to situations such as autism and social cognitive deficit. By reducing perception and action, mirror neurons illuminate how our brains connect and explain the behavior of people around us.
