Complementary Sensory and Associative Microcircuitry in Primary Olfactory Cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The three-layered primary olfactory (piriform) cortex is the largest component of the olfactory cortex. Sensory and intracortical inputs converge on principal cells in the anterior piriform cortex (aPC).Wecharacterize organization principles of the ...

Sensory stimulation for patients with disorders of consciousness: from stimulation to rehabilitation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2014
Sensory Stimulation (SS) for patients with Disorders of Consciousness (DOC) refers to a corpus of approaches aimed at promoting arousal and behavioral responsiveness by the application of environmental stimuli (Giacino, 1996). Despite the different procedures adopted, the method invariably includes presentation of stimuli which are simple, frequent and

Flicker regularity is crucial for entrainment of alpha oscillations

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
Previous studies have shown that alpha oscillations (8-13 Hz) in human electroencephalogram (EEG) modulate perception via phase-dependent inhibition. If entrained to an external driving force, inhibition maxima and minima of the oscillation appear more ...

Effect of sensory deprivation and Locus Coeruleus (LC) electrical stimulation on the response properties of layer IV barrel cortex neurons in male rats [PDF]

open access: yes
Introduction: Barrel cortex of rodents is responsible for sensory information processing from muzzle whiskers. Locus coeruleus (LC) as the main source of norepinephrine (NE) in the cortex, is effective on the sensory information processing. Methods:

Repetitive tactile stimulation changes resting-state functional connectivity – implications for treatment of sensorimotor decline

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012
Neurological disorders and physiological aging can lead to a decline of perceptual abilities. In contrast to the conventional therapeutic approach that comprises intensive training and practicing, passive repetitive sensory stimulation (RSS) has recently

Effect of sensory deprivation and locus coeruleus phasic electrical stimulation following the deflection of adjacent whisker on response properties of principal whisker related-neurons in layer IV of rat barrel cortex [PDF]

open access: yes
Background: Barrel cortex of rodents is responsible for sensory information processing via facial whiskers. Locus coeruleus (LC), main source of cortical norepinephrine (NE), influences tactile sensory processing.

Sensory Memory Workshop: An account of experience

open access: yesCadernos Brasileiros de Terapia Ocupacional, 2019
Introduction: Across the world, population aging can lead to the emergence of chronic degenerative diseases, among them, the major neurocognitive disorder (TNM) known as dementia. It’s a syndrome characterized by cognitive, perceptual and sensory losses
