Separate representations of target and timing cue locations in the supplementary eye fields [PDF]
When different stimuli indicate where and when to make an eye movement, the brain areas involved in oculomotor control must selectively plan an eye movement to the stimulus that encodes the target position and also encode the information available from ...

Mapping quantal touch using 7 Tesla functional magnetic resonance imaging and single-unit intraneural microstimulation. [PDF]
Using ultra-high field 7 Tesla (7T) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we map the cortical and perceptual responses elicited by intraneural microstimulation (INMS) of single mechanoreceptive afferent units in the median nerve, in humans ...

A robot hand testbed designed for enhancing embodiment and functional neurorehabilitation of body schema in subjects with upper limb impairment or loss. [PDF]
Many upper limb amputees experience an incessant, post-amputation "phantom limb pain" and report that their missing limbs feel paralyzed in an uncomfortable posture.

Estimation of electrode location in a rat motor cortex by laminar analysis of electrophysiology and intracortical electrical stimulation [PDF]
While the development of microelectrode arrays has enabled access to disparate regions of a cortex for neurorehabilitation, neuroprosthetic and basic neuroscience research, accurate interpretation of the signals and manipulation of the cortical neurons ...

Behavioral assessment of sensitivity to intracortical microstimulation of primate somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
Significance Electrical stimulation of sensory structures in the brain is a powerful tool to investigate neural circuits and may provide a means to restore sensation for patients for whom stimulation of the nerve is not an option. For both purposes, however, it is critical to understand how the design of the stimulation shapes the evoked ...

ABSTRACT Background Age‐related decline in swallowing function (dysphagia) increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia and reduces quality of life in older adults. However, the efficacy of swallowing‐targeted interventions in aging remains unclear. Objective This study aimed to systematically review the interventions for age‐related dysphagia in aged ...

Changes in Spinal Neural Circuit Plasticity in a Rat Sciatic Nerve Transection Model
Following sciatic nerve transection (SNT), corticospinal tract (CST) labeling in the lumbar gray matter remained unchanged, whereas motor neurons showed soma atrophy with reduced perisomatic vesicular glutamate transporter 1 (vGlut1) and vesicular acetylcholine transporter (vAchT) inputs.
