A predictive processing theory of sensorimotor contingencies: explaining the puzzle of perceptual presence and its absence in synesthesia [PDF]

, 2014
Normal perception involves experiencing objects within perceptual scenes as real, as existing in the world. This property of “perceptual presence” has motivated “sensorimotor theories” which understand perception to involve the mastery of sensorimotor ...

A robot hand testbed designed for enhancing embodiment and functional neurorehabilitation of body schema in subjects with upper limb impairment or loss. [PDF]

, 2015
Many upper limb amputees experience an incessant, post-amputation "phantom limb pain" and report that their missing limbs feel paralyzed in an uncomfortable posture.

Resting-state functional connectivity changes in the human brain from electrically-stimulated (2 Hz), rhythmic muscle contractions to the hand: An exploratory study

NeuroImage: Reports
Sensory nerves from contracting skeletal muscles can alter autonomic functions mediated by connections in the medulla and hypothalamus. We hypothesized that low-frequency, non-voluntary, rhythmical electrical stimulation of small muscles of the hand, in ...

Dysfunction of cortical GABAergic neurons leads to sensory hyper-reactivity in a Shank3 mouse model of ASD. [PDF]

, 2020
Hyper-reactivity to sensory input is a common and debilitating symptom in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), but the neural basis underlying sensory abnormality is not completely understood.

A Network Analysis Approach to Detect and Differentiate Usher Syndrome Types Using miRNA Expression Profiles: A Pilot Study

BioMedInformatics
Background: Usher syndrome (USH) is a rare genetic disorder that affects both hearing and vision. It presents in three clinical types—USH1, USH2, and USH3—with varying onset, severity, and disease progression.

Auditory white noise exposure results in intrinsic cortical excitability changes

iScience, 2023
Summary: Cortical excitability is commonly measured by applying magnetic stimulation in combination with measuring behavioral response. This measure has, however, some shortcomings including spatial limitation to the primary motor cortex and not ...

I, NEURON: the neuron as the collective [PDF]

, 2017
Purpose – In the last half-century, individual sensory neurons have been bestowed with characteristics of the whole human being, such as behavior and its oft-presumed precursor, consciousness. This anthropomorphization is pervasive in the literature.

Behavioural evidence for separate mechanisms of audiovisual temporal binding as a function of leading sensory modality [PDF]

, 2016
The ability to integrate auditory and visual information is critical for effective perception and interaction with the environment, and is thought to be abnormal in some clinical populations.

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.
