Illusory Motion Reversal in Touch
Frontiers 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
Brain 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.

Dense connectomic reconstruction in layer 4 of the somatosensory cortex
Science, 2018 Brain anatomy revealed in startling detail The mammalian cerebral cortex is an enormously complex network of neuronal processes that are long and thin, branching, and extremely densely packed.

Review: Do the Different Sensory Areas within the Cat Anterior Ectosylvian Sulcal Cortex Collectively Represent a Network Multisensory Hub? [PDF]
, 2018 Current theory supports that the numerous functional areas of the cerebral cortex are organized and function as a network. Using connectional databases and computational approaches, the cerebral network has been demonstrated to exhibit a hierarchical ...

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.

Does the somatosensory temporal discrimination threshold change over time in focal dystonia? [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: The somatosensory temporal discrimination threshold (STDT) is defined as the shortest interval at which an individual recognizes two stimuli as asynchronous. Some evidence suggests that STDT depends on cortical inhibitory interneurons in the

Two Mechanisms of Sensorimotor Set Adaptation to Inclined Stance
Frontiers 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.

Etiology of phantom limb syndrome: Insights from a 3D default space consciousness model [PDF]
, 2015 In this article, we examine phantom limb syndrome to gain insights into how the brain functions as the mind and how consciousness arises. We further explore our previously proposed consciousness model in which consciousness and body schema arise when ...

Perceptually relevant remapping of human somatotopy in 24 hours
eLife, 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.

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021 Mismatch brain responses to unpredicted rare stimuli are suggested to be a neural indicator of prediction error, but this has rarely been studied in the somatosensory modality. Here, we investigated how the brain responds to unpredictable and predictable
