The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Patients with fibromyalgia and no‐pain controls completed questionnaire ratings of chronic pain, childhood trauma, anxiety and depression. During the first session a conditioned pain modulation task was administered, with heat pain applied via thermode and cold pain via cold water‐bath.

Stepping on obstacles with a sensory substitution device on the lower leg: practice without vision is more beneficial than practice with vision. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Practice is essential for an adapted use of sensory substitution devices. Understanding the learning process is therefore a fundamental issue in this field of research.

Modeling and Experimental Evaluation of Haptic Localization Using Electrostatic Vibration Actuators
IEEE Access, 2023 Touch screen devices have become ubiquitous in modern day-to-day lives. While smaller touchscreen devices provide enough user engagement with meaningful haptic feedback, large touch devices still lack meaningful haptic stimulation.

Vibrotactile Stimulation for Emotional Elicitation During Audiovisual Events
IEEE Access, 2023 Audiovisual media are an essential source of information and leisure in our lives, but people with hearing disabilities lose the emotional content that is intended to be transmitted through this channel. Some previous studies have tried to find alternative ways to elicit these emotions using other sensory channels, and some attempts have been made with

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend The study investigated the modulatory effects of affective touch on temporal summation of second pain (TSSP) in 32 romantic couples (N = 64). The design included a dyadic session (partner's CT‐optimal stroking vs. static touch) and an individual session (robotic CT‐touch vs. vibration control).

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Peripheral tactile afferents exhibit a wide range of response patterns to a pure frequency vibratory stimulus. Some afferents, including those remote from the stimulus site, fire at lower rates as they do not respond to every vibration cycle of the stimulus.
