A supramodal representation of the body surface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The ability to accurately localize both tactile and painful sensations on the body is one of the most important functions of the somatosensory system.

Closed-Loop Deep Brain Stimulation for Refractory Chronic Pain

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2018
Pain is a subjective experience that alerts an individual to actual or potential tissue damage. Through mechanisms that are still unclear, normal physiological pain can lose its adaptive value and evolve into pathological chronic neuropathic pain ...

Illusory Motion Reversal in Touch

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Psychophysical visual experiments have shown illusory motion reversal (IMR), in which the perceived direction of motion is the opposite of its actual direction. The tactile form of this illusion has also been reported.

Optimizing Movement Performance with Altered Sensation: An Examination of Multisensory Inputs

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Two experiments were conducted to assess the impact of induced paresthesia on movement parameters of goal-directed aiming movements to determine how visual and auditory feedback may enhance performance when somatosensory feedback is disrupted.

Two Mechanisms of Sensorimotor Set Adaptation to Inclined Stance

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Orientation of posture relative to the environment depends on the contributions from the somatosensory, vestibular, and visual systems mixed in varying proportions to produce a sensorimotor set.

Neural coding of tactile decisions in the human prefrontal cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The neural processes underlying tactile decisions in the human brain remain elusive. We addressed this question in a functional magnetic resonance imaging study using a somatosensory discrimination task, requiring participants to compare the frequency of

Perceptually relevant remapping of human somatotopy in 24 hours

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Experience-dependent reorganisation of functional maps in the cerebral cortex is well described in the primary sensory cortices. However, there is relatively little evidence for such cortical reorganisation over the short-term.

Multisensory Interactions between Vestibular, Visual and Somatosensory Signals.

open access: yes, 2015
Vestibular inputs are constantly processed and integrated with signals from other sensory modalities, such as vision and touch. The multiply-connected nature of vestibular cortical anatomy led us to investigate whether vestibular signals could ...

A novel image segmentation method based on spatial autocorrelation identifies A-type potassium channel clusters in the thalamus

open access: yeseLife
Unsupervised segmentation in biological and non-biological images is only partially resolved. Segmentation either requires arbitrary thresholds or large teaching datasets.

Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Treatment of Somatosensory Tinnitus: A Scoping Review

open access: yesFrontiers 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.
