Action does not enhance but attenuates predicted touch

eLife, 2023
Dominant motor control theories propose that the brain predicts and attenuates the somatosensory consequences of actions, referred to as somatosensory attenuation. Support comes from psychophysical and neuroimaging studies showing that touch applied on a

Predictions of bimanual self-touch determine the temporal tuning of somatosensory perception

iScience
Summary: We easily distinguish self-touch from the touch of others. This distinction is suggested to arise because the brain predicts the somatosensory consequences of voluntary movements using an efference copy and attenuates the predicted self-touch ...

Volatile Memristive Devices With Tunable Temporal Dynamics For Event‐Based Sensing

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Tunable volatile memristive devices can serve various neural‐inspired tasks that require different time windows of information retention. The ionic‐based volatility of the presented Pt/a‐STO/TaOx/Ta device stack can be reproducibly and controllably tuned in multiple ways.

Tactile Hypersensitivity and “Overwhelming Subjectivity” in the Touch Experience of People With Congenital Deafblindness: Implications for a Touch-Based Pedagogy

Frontiers in Education, 2020
Tactile hypersensitivity, sometimes referred to as tactile aversion, shyness or defensiveness, is a frequently cited challenge for support partners and educators in working with people with congenital deafblindness (CDB). Touch is the most fundamental of
