SUMMARY:”A recent discovery in the brains of primates, mirror neurons are special neurons that show activity both when a subject performs an action and when it observes the same action performed by another. Some scientists consider mirror neurons one of the most important findings in neuroscience in the last decade, in part because they are thought to be responsible for the empathic response in humans. In particular, these neurons allow a person to empathize with someone who is having a traumatic experience. How does this adaptation come into play for an actor?”
