Neuromodulatory organization in the developing rat somatosensory cortex

Henry Markram, Srikanth Ramaswamy, Armando Romani, Cristina Colangelo, Alberto Antonietti, Joni Henrikki Herttuainen

The vast majority of cortical synapses are found in the neuropil which is implicated in multiple and diverse functions underlying brain computation. Unraveling the organizing principles of the cortical neuropil requires an intricate characterization of syn ...

Exploring the spatial resolution of TMS-EEG coupling on the sensorimotor region

Estelle Emeline Raffin, Sylvain Jean-François Harquel

The use of TMS-EEG coupling as a neuroimaging tool for the functional exploration of the human brain recently gained strong interest. If this tool directly inherits the fine temporal resolution from EEG, its spatial counterpart remains unknown. In this stu ...

Plastic Changes in Pain and Motor Network Induced by Chronic Burn Pain

Chang-Hyun Park

Musculoskeletal diseases with chronic pain are difficult to control because of their association with both central as well as the peripheral nervous system. In burn patients, chronic pain is one of the major complications that cause persistent discomfort. ...

Combining Reflexes and External Sensory Information in a Neuromusculoskeletal Model to Control a Quadruped Robot

Auke Ijspeert, Azhar Aulia Saputra

This article examines the importance of integrating locomotion and cognitive information for achieving dynamic locomotion from a viewpoint combining biology and ecological psychology. We present a mammalian neuromusculoskeletal model from external sensory ...

The structural connectome and motor recovery after stroke: predicting natural recovery

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Gabriel Girard, Takuya Morishita, Elena Beanato, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Chang-Hyun Park, Philipp Johannes Koch, Philip Egger, Giorgia Giulia Evangelista

Stroke patients vary considerably in terms of outcomes: some patients present ‘natural’ recovery proportional to their initial impairment (fitters), while others do not (non-fitters). Thus, a key challenge in stroke rehabilitation is to identify individual ...

Computational model of the dorsal horn circuitry for innocuous touch

Silvestro Micera, Simone Romeni

Providing a naturalistic tactile sensory feedback is currently one of the key challenges in neuroprosthetics. Modeling has played a fundamental role in the development of "biomimetic" stimulation protocols, determining optimal activation patterns to be eli ...

Brain plasticity dynamics during tactile Braille learning in sighted subjects: Multi-contrast MRI approach

Bogdan Draganski

A growing body of empirical evidence supports the notion of diverse neurobiological processes underlying learning-induced plasticity changes in the human brain. There are still open questions about how brain plasticity depends on cognitive task complexity, ...

A new empirical challenge for local theories of consciousness

Adrien Christophe Doerig

Local theories of consciousness state that one is conscious of a feature if it is adequately represented and processed in sensory brain areas, given some background conditions. We challenge the core prediction of local theories based on long-lasting postdi ...

Sleep disturbance-related depressive symptom and brain volume reduction in shift-working nurses

Chang-Hyun Park

Disturbed sleep is the most common effect of shift work. A large corpus of research indicates an association between sleep disturbance and depressive symptom in shift workers. In this study, we proposed the mediating role of grey matter (GM) structure in t ...

The Inequality of Neural Destiny: Signatures of Lifecourse Socioeconomic Conditions in Markers of Brain Tissue Myelination and Volume

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Bogdan Draganski, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Socioeconomic status (SES) plays a significant role in health and disease. At the same time, early-life conditions affect neural function and structure, suggesting the brain may be a conduit for the biological embedding of SES. Here, we investigate the neu ...
