A multimodal neuroimaging study of somatosensory system [PDF]
, 2010 The thesis is the result of a training by the Magnetoencephalography (MEG)-lab by the Center mind/brain science of the university of Trento. Final goal of the analysis was answering the question if MEG is capable to capture activities from the ...

Neutrophil‐Mimetic MRI Enables Ultra‐Early Detection of Vascular Inflammation After Stroke
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.In this study, we developed neutrophil‐mimetic MRI probes that detect ultra‐early neuroinflammation following ischemic stroke by targeting E‐selectin. Within seconds of their injection, these microparticles mimic initial leukocyte adhesion to the activated cerebral endothelium.

Methods of Somatosensory Attenuation
, 2023 Self-generated touch feels less intense (and less ticklish) than an externally generated touch of the same intensity. Since the early 1970s, researchers in somatosensation sought to understand the origins and the principles of this phenomenon. This chapter will focus on two methods of studying the perceived intensity of self-generated touch in relation

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We report a multifunctional tapered optical fiber integrating a conformal micro‐resistance temperature detector (µRTD) for local, real‐time thermometry during optical stimulation. The platform combines light‐delivery and temperature sensing within a minimally invasive footprint, enabling detection of sub‐degree cortical heating under representative ...

Rapid enhancement of touch from non-informative vision of the hand
, 2012 Processing in one sensory modality may modulate processing in another. Here we investigate how simply viewing the hand can influence the sense of touch. Previous studies showed that non-informative vision of the hand enhances tactile acuity, relative to ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Cell type specific connections from primary motor to primary somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
, 2013 Anatomical studies have shown that primary somatosensory (S1) and primary motor (M1) cortices are reciprocally connected. The pathway from primary motor cortex (M1) to primary somatosensory cortex (S1) is thought to influence activity in S1 by ...
