c-Fos expression during temporal order judgment in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The neuronal mechanisms for ordering sensory signals in time still need to be clarified despite a long history of research. To address this issue, we recently developed a behavioral task of temporal order judgment in mice.

Scientific Reports, 2023 While inattentional blindness and deafness studies have revealed neural correlates of consciousness (NCC) without the confound of task relevance in the visual and auditory modality, comparable studies for the somatosensory modality are lacking.

Normalization in human somatosensory cortex
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2015 Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to measure activity in human somatosensory cortex and to test for cross-digit suppression. Subjects received stimulation (vibration of varying amplitudes) to the right thumb (target) with or without concurrent stimulation of the right middle finger (mask).

Rich spatio-temporal stimulus dynamics unveil sensory specialization in cortical area S2
Nature Communications, 2018 Sensory tuning properties of neurons in the secondary whisker somatosensory cortex (wS2) are not well understood. Here, the authors report that wS2 neurons supralinearly integrate concurrent multi-whisker input with larger temporal windows than primary ...

Effect of Prenatal Valproic Acid Exposure on Cortical Morphology in Female Mice
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012 We have recently shown that prenatal valproic acid (VPA) exposure causes autism spectrum disorders–like behavioral abnormalities and Nissl-positive cell loss in both prefrontal and somatosensory cortices in male mice.

NMDA receptors control development of somatosensory callosal axonal projections
eLife, 2021 Callosal projections from primary somatosensory cortex (S1) are key for processing somatosensory inputs and integrating sensory-motor information. How the callosal innervation pattern in S1 is formed during early postnatal development is not clear.

On the Geometry of Somatosensory Representations in the Cortex
NeuroImageAbstract It is well-known that cortical areas specializing in the processing of somatosensory information from different parts of the body are arranged in an orderly manner along the cortex. It is also generally accepted that in the cortex, somatosensory information is initially processed in the primary somatosensory cortex and from ...

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 Cross-modal activity in visual cortex of blind subjects has been reported during performance of variety of non-visual tasks. A key unanswered question is through which pathways non-visual inputs are funneled to the visual cortex. Here we used tomographic

An approach to localizing corneal pain representation in human primary somatosensory cortex. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The cornea has been a focus of animal electrophysiological research for decades, but little is known regarding its cortical representation in the human brain. This study attempts to localize the somatotopic representation of the cornea to painful stimuli

Electroacupuncture-Induced Plasticity between Different Representations in Human Motor Cortex
Neural Plasticity, 2020 Somatosensory stimulation can effectively induce plasticity in the motor cortex representation of the stimulated body part. Specific interactions have been reported between different representations within the primary motor cortex.
