Rat whisker motor cortex is subdivided into sensory-input and motor-output areas
Rodent whisking is an exploratory behavior that can be modified by sensory feedback. Consistent with this, many whisker-sensitive cortical regions project to agranular motor (MI) cortex, but the relative topography of these afferent projections has not ...

The mechanisms of electrical neuromodulation
Abstract figure legend This Topical Review offers a comprehensive examination of how electrical stimulation affects neural function across various levels. At the cellular level, we investigate the influence of exogenous electricity on voltage‐gated channels, action potential generation, synaptic transmission, membrane properties, and neurotransmitter ...

Restoring tactile and proprioceptive sensation through a brain interface
Somatosensation plays a critical role in the dexterous manipulation of objects, in emotional communication, and in the embodiment of our limbs. For upper-limb neuroprostheses to be adopted by prospective users, prosthetic limbs will thus need to provide ...

Brain injury, including stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI), is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide, and limited spontaneous neuroplasticity often results in persistent neurological impairments. Neuromodulation has the potential to enhance brain reorganization, but when targeting motor pathways, it might yield unsatisfactory ...

Intracortical microstimulation in humans: a decade of safety and efficacy
Abstract Background Intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) of somatosensory cortex can restore a sense of touch to people with spinal cord injury (SCI). In this early-feasibility clinical trial, we evaluate the safety, efficacy, and longevity of ICMS as there is a paucity of such long-term studies in ...

Functional imaging of the somatosensory cortex in people with spinal cord injury enabled planning for precise electrode array placement in the brain for a brain–computer interface. Stimulation through electrodes in the somatosensory cortex generated sensations of touch in digits that matched the functional imaging results used for placement.

Intracortical Microstimulation Aanalysis of Rat Motor Cortex Following Maxillary Molar Extraction [PDF]
The neuroplastic changes in the motor representations within the face primary motor cortex (Face-M1) due to jaw and tongue motor alterations following the unilateral extraction of maxillary molars teeth have not been explored.
