Open Review of “Open Review of ‘A somato-cognitive action network alternates with effector regions in motor cortex’ (Gordon et al., 2023)” (Muret et al., 2023)

Muret et al. are expert in and have previously conducted group-averaged motor task fMRI studies in humans. Their review of our work on the somato-cognitive action network (SCAN) focused on the human task fMRI results, largely sidestepping the resting state functional connectivity and structural MRI findings. They also did not discuss the recently published human BCI and sEEG or the non-human primate tracer work consistent with our results.
