Motion of Interfaces in Biological Systems

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
Interfaces might be characterised by properties such as energy per area, speed, width and interaction with inhomogeneities which may impede or accelerate their motion. We consider advancing tumour and apoptosis fronts as examples. We also consider boundaries which separate regions where cells cycles are synchronised from regions where they are ...

Event-Related EEG Desynchronization Reveals Enhanced Motor Imagery From the Third Person Perspective by Manipulating Sense of Body Ownership With Virtual Reality for Stroke Patients

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Virtual reality (VR)-based rehabilitation training holds great potential for post-stroke motor recovery. Existing VR-based motor imagery (MI) paradigms mostly focus on the first-person perspective, and the benefit of the third-person perspective (3PP ...

Gravity Cues Embedded in the Kinematics of Human Motion Are Detected in Form-from-Motion Areas of the Visual System and in Motor-Related Areas

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2017
The present study investigated the cortical areas engaged in the perception of graviceptive information embedded in biological motion (BM). To this end, functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to assess the cortical areas active during the ...

Oxytocin modulates human chemosensory decoding of sex in a dose-dependent manner

open access: yeseLife, 2021
There has been accumulating evidence of human social chemo-signaling, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Considering the evolutionarily conserved roles of oxytocin and vasopressin in reproductive and social behaviors, we examined ...

Sociability modifies dogs’ sensitivity to biological motion of different social relevance

open access: yesAnimal Cognition, 2018
Preferential attention to living creatures is believed to be an intrinsic capacity of the visual system of several species, with perception of biological motion often studied and, in humans, it correlates with social cognitive performance.

The time to passage of biological and complex motion [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vision, 2012
A significant part of human interactions occur with other human beings and not only with inanimate objects. It is important in everyday tasks to estimate the time it takes other people to reach (time to contact) or pass us (time to passage). Surprisingly, little is known about judging time to contact or time to passage of biological or other complex ...

Neural Processing and Production of Gesture in Children and Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) demonstrate impairments in non-verbal communication, including gesturing and imitation deficits. Reduced sensitivity to biological motion (BM) in ASD may impair processing of dynamic social cues like ...

A functional magnetic resonance imaging examination of audiovisual observation of a point-light string quartet using intersubject correlation and physical feature analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
We use functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) to explore synchronized neural responses between observers of audiovisual presentation of a string quartet performance during free viewing.

Perception of biological motion in visual agnosia [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2012
Over the past 25 years, visual processing has been discussed in the context of the dual stream hypothesis consisting of a ventral ("what") and a dorsal ("where") visual information processing pathway. Patients with brain damage of the ventral pathway typically present with signs of visual agnosia, the inability to identify and discriminate objects by ...

Orderliness of Visual Stimulus Motion Mediates Sensorimotor Coordination

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
We explored the coupling of gaze and postural sway to the motion of a visual stimulus, to further understand sensorimotor coordination. Visual stimuli consisted of a horizontally oscillating red dot, moving with periodic (sine), chaotic, or aperiodic ...
