Multiscale body maps in the human brain

Michel Akselrod

A large number of brain regions are dedicated to processing information from the body in order to enable interactions with the environment. During my thesis, I studied the functional organization of brain networks involved in processing bodily information. ...

Voltage-sensitive dye imaging of mouse neocortex during a whisker detection task

Carl Petersen, Matthieu Pierre Auffret, Alexandros Kyriakatos, Vijay Sadashivaiah, Yifei Zhang, Alessandro Motta

Sensorimotor processing occurs in a highly distributed manner in the mammalian neocortex. The spatiotemporal dynamics of electrical activity in the dorsal mouse neocortex can be imaged using voltage-sensitive dyes (VSDs) with near-millisecond temporal reso ...

Action Monitoring Cortical Activity Coupled to Submovements

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Aleksander Sobolewski

Numerous studies have examined neural correlates of the human brain’s action-monitoring system during experimentally segmented tasks. However, it remains unknown how such a system operates during continuous motor output when no experimental time marker is ...

Parvalbumin-Expressing GABAergic Neurons in Mouse Barrel Cortex Contribute to Gating a Goal-Directed Sensorimotor Transformation

Carl Petersen, Shankar Sachidhanandam, Berat Semihcan Sermet

Sensory processing in neocortex is primarily driven by glutamatergic excitation, which is counterbalanced by GABAergic inhibition, mediated by a diversity of largely local inhibitory interneurons. Here, we trained mice to lick a reward spout in response to ...

Brain-Controlled Devices: The Perception-Action Closed Loop

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz

Future neuroprosthetics will be tightly coupled with the user in such a way that the resulting system can replace and restore impaired upper limb functions because controlled by the same neural signals than their natural counterparts. However, robust and n ...

Multisensory and sensorimotor origins of the sense of self

Polona Pozeg

Cognitive neuroscience has increasingly focused on studying the subject, i.e. the self, of conscious experience. In order to be the subject of an experience, we generally experience owning a physical body, being located within that body, and being able to ...

Visual Feedback Dominates the Sense of Agency for Brain-Machine Actions

Olaf Blanke, Aaron Schurger, Nathaniel Evans, Steven Gale

Recent advances in neuroscience and engineering have led to the development of technologies that permit the control of external devices through real-time decoding of brain activity (brain-machine interfaces; BMI). Though the feeling of controlling bodily m ...

Characterizing Embodied Interaction in First and Third Person Perspective Viewpoints

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Eray Molla, Henrique Galvan Debarba

Third Person Perspective (3PP) viewpoints have the potential to expand how one perceives and acts in a virtual environment. They offer increased awareness of the posture and of the surrounding of the virtual body as compared to First Person Perspective (1P ...

Brain-Machine Interfaces: The Perception-Action Closed Loop

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz

A brain-machine interface (BMI) is about transforming neural activity into action and sensation into perception (Figure 1). In a BMI system, neural signals recorded from the brain are fed into a decoding algorithm that translates these signals into motor o ...

Multisensory Spatial Mechanisms of the Bodily Self and Social Cognition - A Commentary on Vittorio Gallese and Valentina Cuccio

Christian Pfeiffer

This commentary aims to find the right description of the pre-reflective brain mechanisms underlying our phenomenal experience of being a subject bound to a physical body (bodily self) and basic cognitive, perceptual, and subjective aspects related to inte ...
