Gratifying Gizmos for Research and Clinical MEG

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
Experimental designs are of utmost importance in neuroimaging. Experimental repertoire needs to be designed with the understanding of physiology, clinical feasibility, and constraints posed by a particular neuroimaging method.

Oral somatosensory awareness [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2014
Oral somatosensory awareness refers to the somatic sensations arising within the mouth, and to the information these sensations provide about the state and structure of the mouth itself, and objects in the mouth. Because the oral tissues have a strong somatosensory innervation, they are the locus of some of our most intense and vivid bodily experiences.

Mapping of the Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2020
Intraoperative sensory cortical mapping is a reliable and safe method for the functional localization of the central sulcus (CS). It is utilized during neurosurgical procedures performed near eloquent brain tissue. It helps in identifying the somatosensory cortex and CS, hence preventing any postoperative neurological deficits.

Myotubularin related protein-2 and its phospholipid substrate PIP2 control Piezo2-mediated mechanotransduction in peripheral sensory neurons

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Piezo2 ion channels are critical determinants of the sense of light touch in vertebrates. Yet, their regulation is only incompletely understood. We recently identified myotubularin related protein-2 (Mtmr2), a phosphoinositide (PI) phosphatase, in the ...

Vicarious experiences and detection accuracy while observing pain and touch: the effect of perspective taking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this study, we investigated the effects of observing pain and touch in others on vicarious somatosensory experiences and the detection of subtle somatosensory stimuli.

Closed-Loop Deep Brain Stimulation for Refractory Chronic Pain

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2018
Pain is a subjective experience that alerts an individual to actual or potential tissue damage. Through mechanisms that are still unclear, normal physiological pain can lose its adaptive value and evolve into pathological chronic neuropathic pain ...

Bayesian Action&Perception: Representing the World in the Brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Theories of perception seek to explain how sensory data are processed to identify previously experienced objects, but they usually do not consider the decisions and effort that goes into acquiring the sensory data.

Somatotopic Arrangement of the Human Primary Somatosensory Cortex Derived From Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to estimate neuronal activity in the primary somatosensory cortex of six participants undergoing cutaneous tactile stimulation on skin areas spread across the entire body.

Perceptually relevant remapping of human somatotopy in 24 hours

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Experience-dependent reorganisation of functional maps in the cerebral cortex is well described in the primary sensory cortices. However, there is relatively little evidence for such cortical reorganisation over the short-term.

The role of the right tempoparietal junction in the elicitation of vicarious experiences and detection accuracy while observing pain and touch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This study investigated the effects of observing pain and touch in others upon vicarious somatosensory experiences and the detection of subtle somatosensory stimuli.
