The anticipation of events in time
, 2019 Humans anticipate events signaled by sensory cues. It is commonly assumed that two uncertainty parameters modulate the brain's capacity to predict: the hazard rate (HR) of event probability and the uncertainty in time estimation which increases with ...

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 169, Issue 11, November 2025.In this review, we discuss the development and maturation of inhibitory neurons and astrocytes and how early developmental activity in the brain might promote the interactions between these cell types. Early in development, excitatory neurons are the first to emerge.

Somatosensation: Putting Touch On the Map [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 A new study takes a significant step towards uncovering the mechanisms that put tactile events on the brain's spatial map by establishing a causal link between attention-related parietal alpha oscillatory activity and the external spatial coding of touch.

Low-noise encoding of active touch by layer 4 in the somatosensory cortex
eLife, 2015 Cortical spike trains often appear noisy, with the timing and number of spikes varying across repetitions of stimuli. Spiking variability can arise from internal (behavioral state, unreliable neurons, or chaotic dynamics in neural circuits) and external (

The relationship between mirror-touch synaesthesia and empathy: new evidence and a new screening tool [PDF]
, 2018 People with mirror-touch synaesthesia (MTS) report experiencing tactile sensations on their own body when seeing another person being touched. Although this has been associated with heightened empathy and emotion perception, this finding has recently ...

High‐caloric intake rescues early symptomatic AD‐induced hippocampal neurovascular coupling deficits
Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's disease (AD) involves progressive hippocampal dysfunction and atrophy. Obesity, common in AD patients, is a known dementia risk factor. Studying their interaction is difficult in humans due to AD's slow progression. Experimental AD models comorbid with obesity are needed for translational insights.

Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Treatment of Somatosensory Tinnitus: A Scoping Review
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017 Somatosensory tinnitus is a generally agreed subtype of tinnitus that is associated with activation of the somatosensory, somatomotor, and visual-motor systems.

Experimental Physiology, Volume 110, Issue 10, Page 1422-1430, October 1, 2025.Abstract Position sense is arguably more important than any of the other proprioceptive senses, because it provides us with information about the position of our body and limbs in relationship to one another and to our surroundings; it has been considered to contribute to our self‐awareness.

Assessing plantar sensation in the foot using the FOot Roughness Discrimination Test (FoRDT™): a reliability and validity study in stroke [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: The foot sole represents a sensory dynamometric map and is essential for balance and gait control. Sensory impairments are common, yet often difficult to quantify in neurological conditions, particularly stroke.

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 603, Issue 20, Page 6365-6389, October 15, 2025.Abstract figure legend Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) and melastatin 3 (TRPM3) activation regulate pre‐ and postsynaptic Ca2+ concentrations and synaptic activity in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. Left: a model that describes how activation of TRPA1 and TRPM3 channels induces an influx of Ca2+ in the central terminals of sensory ...
