The somatosensory cortex is a region of the mammalian brain known to play a crucial role in the processing of sensory information, including tactile sensations, temperature and pain. While this brain ...
The passage of time is sensed, perceived, and experienced, but—unlike for touch, vision, hearing, and olfaction—there exist no sensory receptors for time. This fact has long tantalized neuroscientists ...
Researchers discover rotating spiral brain waves that travel across cortical networks, acting as a space-and-time clock for ...
Recent neurophysiological and neuroanatomical studies suggest a close interaction between sensory and motor processes across the neocortex. Here, I propose that the neocortex implements active ...
Spiraling waves of neural activity appear and travel in the brain. Scientists hope to learn if these rotating waves on the ...
Our body movements profoundly impact how our brain processes sensory information. Historically, it was believed that the brain's primary motor cortex played a key role in modulating sensory ...
Spiraling waves of neural activity appear and travel in the brain. Scientists hope to learn if these rotating waves on-the-move play a global role in sensing and interpreting internal and external ...
The emergence of sensory pathways in the thalamocortical (TC) system likely depends on a complex interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. In this framework, intrinsic transcriptional programmes ...
Optical imaging and optogenetic inactivation of dorsal mouse neocortex reveal an unexpected role for retrosplenial cortex in the context-dependent transformation of whisker sensory information into ...
The cerebral cortex processes sensory information via a complex network of neural connections. How are these signals modulated to refine perception? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has ...
Utilizing optogenetics, researchers at Fujita Health University have selectively deactivated neural pathways with light, revealing new insights into how sensory and motor areas of the mouse brain ...
