Learning not to feel: reshaping the resolution of tactile perception
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2013 We asked whether biased feedback during training could cause human subjects to lose perceptual acuity in a vibrotactile frequency discrimination task.

Scholarpedia, 2015 It is commonly assumed that object perception is the combination of sensory features into unified perceptual entities. Tactile object perception may therefore be defined as the perception of objects whose feature information is acquired via touch. Consequently, research relevant to the topic of tactile objects has focused on exploring the primitives of

Neuronal Correlates of Tactile Working Memory in Prefrontal and Vibrissal Somatosensory Cortex
Cell Reports, 2019 Summary: Tactile working memory engages a broad network of cortical regions in primates. To assess whether the conclusions drawn from primates apply to rodents, we examined the vibrissal primary somatosensory cortex (vS1) and the prelimbic cortex (PL) in

Whisker-Mediated Touch System in Rodents: From Neuron to Behavior
Frontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2019 A key question in systems neuroscience is to identify how sensory stimuli are represented in neuronal activity, and how the activity of sensory neurons in turn is “read out” by downstream neurons and give rise to behavior.

Tactile roughness perception in the presence of olfactory and trigeminal stimulants [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Previous research has shown that odorants consistently evoke associations with textures and their tactile properties like smoothness and roughness. Also, it has been observed that olfaction can modulate tactile perception.

Damage to the right insula disrupts the perception of affective touch
eLife, 2020 Specific, peripheral C-tactile afferents contribute to the perception of tactile pleasure, but the brain areas involved in their processing remain debated.

Categorical perception of tactile distance [PDF]
Cognition, 2014 The tactile surface forms a continuous sheet covering the body. And yet, the perceived distance between two touches varies across stimulation sites. Perceived tactile distance is larger when stimuli cross over the wrist, compared to when both fall on either the hand or the forearm.

NeuroImage, 2023 Auditory perception can benefit from stimuli in non-auditory sensory modalities, as for example in lip-reading. Compared with such visual influences, tactile influences are still poorly understood. It has been shown that single tactile pulses can enhance

Friction, 2017 Tactile perception is a complex system, which depends on frictional interactions between skin and counter-body. The contact mechanics of tactile friction is governed by many factors such as the state and properties of skin and counter-body.
