From basic sciences and engineering to epileptology: A translational approach
Collaborative efforts between basic scientists, engineers, and clinicians are enabling translational epileptology. In this article, we summarize the recent advances presented at the International Conference for Technology and Analysis of Seizures (ICTALS 2 ...
WILEY2023Breathing affects self-other voice discrimination in a bodily state associated with somatic passivity
Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Giulio Rognini, Hyeongdong Park, Pavo Orepic
A growing number of studies have focused on identifying cognitive processes that are modulated by interoceptive signals, particularly in relation to the respiratory or cardiac cycle. Considering the fundamental role of interoception in bodily self-consciou ...
WILEY2022Distinct locomotor control and awareness in awake sleepwalkers
Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape
Sleepwalkers’ complex nocturnal behaviors have inspired fictional characters from Shakespeare’s Lady Macbeth to Polidori’s Vampyre to Cesare, the homicidal somnambulist in The Cabinet of Dr Caligari. Yet although the underlying pathophysiology of sleepwalk ...
Elsevier2017Bilateral Rolandic operculum processing underlying heartbeat awareness reflects changes in bodily self-consciousness
Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon, Roberto Martuzzi, Javier Bello Ruiz, Maria Laura Blefari
Exteroceptive bodily signals (including tactile, proprioceptive and visual signals) are important information contributing to self-consciousness. Moreover, prominent theories proposed that visceral signals about internal bodily states are equally or even m ...
Wiley-Blackwell2017Neural Mechanisms of Bodily Self-Consciousness and the Experience of Presence in Virtual Reality
Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Andrea Serino, Roy Salomon
Recent neuroscience research emphasizes the embodied origins of the experience of the self. This chapter shows that further advances in the understanding of the phenomenon of VR-induced presence might be achieved in connection with advances in the understa ...
De Gruyter2016Transient Modulations of Neural Responses to Heartbeats Covary with Bodily Self-Consciousness
Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Roy Salomon, Hyeongdong Park, Christian Pfeiffer, Javier Bello Ruiz
Recent research has investigated self-consciousness associated with the multisensory processing of bodily signals (e.g., somatosensory, visual, vestibular signals), a notion referred to as bodily self-consciousness, and these studies have shown that the ma ...
Soc Neuroscience2016Entrainment,motion, and deposition of coarse particles transported by water over a sloping mobile bed
Christophe Ancey, Joris Heyman
In gravel bed rivers, bed load transport exhibits considerable variability in time and space. Recently, stochastic bed load transport theories have been developed to address the mechanisms and effects of bed load transport fluctuations. Stochastic models i ...
Wiley-Blackwell2016Distinct illusory own-body perceptions caused by damage to posterior insula and extrastriate cortex
Recent research in cognitive neuroscience using virtual reality, robotic technology and brain imaging has linked self-consciousness to the processing and integration of multisensory bodily signals. This work on bodily self-consciousness has implicated the ...
2013Noise in brain activity engenders perception and influences discrimination sensitivity
Fosco Bernasconi, Athina Tzovara
Behavioral and brain responses to identical stimuli can vary with experimental and task parameters, including the context of stimulus presentation or attention. More surprisingly, computational models suggest that noise-related random fluctuations in brain ...
