The Somatotopy of Mental Tactile Imagery
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2019 To what degree mental imagery (MI) bears on the same neuronal processes as perception has been a central question in the neurophysiological study of imagery.

Perceptual and Conceptual Distortions of Implicit Hand Maps
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 Recent studies have revealed that human position sense relies on a massively distorted representation of hand size and shape. By comparing the judged location of landmarks on an occluded hand, Longo and Haggard (2010) constructed implicit perceptual maps

Gratifying Gizmos for Research and Clinical MEG
Frontiers in Neurology, 2022 Experimental designs are of utmost importance in neuroimaging. Experimental repertoire needs to be designed with the understanding of physiology, clinical feasibility, and constraints posed by a particular neuroimaging method.

The cutaneous 'rabbit' illusion affects human primary sensory cortex somatopically [PDF]
, 2006 We used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to study neural correlates of a robust somatosensory illusion that can dissociate tactile perception from physical stimulation.

The effectiveness of proprioceptive training for improving motor function: a systematic review
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015 Objective: Numerous reports advocate that training of the proprioceptive sense is a viable behavioral therapy for improving impaired motor function. However, there is little agreement of what constitutes proprioceptive training and how effective it is ...

More than skin deep: body representation beyond primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]
, 2010 The neural circuits underlying initial sensory processing of somatic information are relatively well understood. In contrast, the processes that go beyond primary somatosensation to create more abstract representations related to the body are less clear.

Somatosensory scaffolding structures [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012 Dynamic changes in somatosensory perception occur as a result of multiple signaling events. In many instances, over-activation of sensory receptors results in the desensitization and subsequent increased threshold for activation of receptors. In other cases, receptor sensitization can occur following tissue injury and/or inflammation.
