These neurons are called mirror neurons. According to this research, mirror neurons were activated in monkeys when the monkey performed an action, as well as when the monkey saw another monkey perform the action, as if the observer himself were acting. Mirror neurons are being studied in order to learn more about them, and determine whether they are involved in processes such as perception coupling and empathetic feelings.
