Increased Neural Strength and Reliability to Audiovisual Stimuli at the Boundary of Peripersonal Space

The actionable space surrounding the body, referred to as peripersonal space (PPS), has been the subject of significant interest of late within the broader framework of embodied cognition. Neurophysiological and neuroimaging studies have shown the represen ...

Cortical and thalamic connectivity of posterior parietal visual cortical areas PPc and PPr of the domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo)

Giorgio Innocenti

The present study describes the ipsilateral and contralateral cortico-cortical and cortico-thalamic connectivity of the parietal visual areas, posterior parietal caudal cortical area (PPc) and posterior parietal rostral cortical area (PPr), in the ferret u ...

Cortical and thalamic connectivity of occipital visual cortical areas 17, 18, 19, and 21 of the domestic ferret (Mustela putorius furo)

Giorgio Innocenti

The present study describes the ipsilateral and contralateral corticocortical and corticothalamic connectivity of the occipital visual areas 17, 18, 19, and 21 in the ferret using standard anatomical tract-tracing methods. In line with previous studies of ...

N-Acetyl-Cysteine Supplementation Improves Functional Connectivity Within the Cingulate Cortex in Early Psychosis: A Pilot Study

Rolf Gruetter, Lijing Xin, Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann, Kim Do, Emeline Mullier

Background: There is increasing evidence that redox dysregulation, which can lead to oxidative stress and eventually to impairment of oligodendrocytes and parvalbumin interneurons, may underlie brain connectivity alterations in schizophrenia. Accordingly, ...

Cardio-visual full body illusion alters bodily self-consciousness and tactile processing in somatosensory cortex

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Jane Aspell, Lukas Heydrich

Prominent theories highlight the importance of bodily perception for self-consciousness, but it is currently not known whether this is based on interoceptive or exteroceptive signals or on integrated signals from these anatomically distinct systems, nor wh ...

Insula mediates heartbeat related effects on visual consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Jonathan Dönz, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Roberta Ronchi, Javier Bello Ruiz

Interoceptive signals, such as the heartbeat, are processed in a network of brain regions including the insular cortex. Recent studies have shown that such signals modulate perceptual and cognitive processing, and that they impact visual awareness. For exa ...

Spatial organization of the somatosensory cortex revealed by osmFISH

Gioele La Manno

Global efforts to create a molecular census of the brain using single-cell transcriptomics are producing a large catalog of molecularly defined cell types. However, spatial information is lacking and new methods are needed to map a large number of cell typ ...

Layer, cell-type and pathway-specific thalamocortical input to mouse somatosensory cortex

Berat Semihcan Sermet

In the mouse whisker system, sensory information is relayed to the whisker somatosensory cortex by two major thalamic nuclei, the ventral posterior medial nucleus (VPM) and the posterior medial nucleus (POM). While the cortical axonal innervation pattern o ...

Audio-Tactile and Peripersonal Space Processing Around the Trunk in Human Parietal and Temporal Cortex: An Intracranial EEG Study

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Fosco Bernasconi, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Jean-Paul Noel, Hyeongdong Park

Interactions with the environment happen within one's peripersonal space (PPS)-the space surrounding the body. Studies in monkeys and humans have highlighted a multisensory distributed cortical network representing the PPS. However, knowledge about the tem ...
