🚨 Hot off the press! 🚨 Eureka moments feel like ⚡️lightning⚡️— sudden, brilliant, impossible to predict. Gauss thought of them as “divine intervention.” But in our new @PNASNews paper, we show that you can actually tell when a breakthrough is coming… 🧵(1/n)

Feedback control undistorts body representations: A possible solution to the hand paradox https://t.co/TnzLmokPKC New theory paper with @peviani_v where we take a stab at reconciling the seemingly contradictory findings of distorted body representations & optimal motor control
osf.io
One of the most consistent findings in the study of body representation is that they are geometrically distorted. This finding is in contrast with human’s dexterity and fine motor skills, which are...

Humans project tactile sensations from a tool into space, as if part of the body. How? We show tactile feedback is projected into gaze-centered coordinates, offering a framework for tool-based sensory projection. https://t.co/BtUnFZzBcZ by Zografos, Medendorp & @LukeMillerNeuro
biorxiv.org
Humans possess the remarkable ability to project tactile sensations outside their body and onto a hand-held tool that they are using. Despite nearly a century of research, the computations underlying...

Check out our new study - a placebo controlled, randomized trial of peripheral vs central beta blockade on cardiac and respiratory interoception!
1/ We can measure interoception in many aspects, but can we actually manipulate it? I’m excited to share our new study, which shows that blockade of peripheral beta-adrenergic pathways improves cardiac and respiratory interoception in unique ways! 🧵👇 https://t.co/1zLNmHTsZv

Excited to share a new lab preprint - led by @MartinezAddiego, @YuqiLiu95703261, in collaboration with @CulhamARI_Lab. We tested what drives the (re?)organization of motor tool-use areas in people born without hands, who use tools with their feet instead. https://t.co/cdt4TmZRBP
biorxiv.org
The sensorimotor system is broadly organized somatotopically. However, an action-type organization has also been found: a division based on action-type independent of acting body parts has been shown...

🧵1/5 🌡️#Thermosensory signals may contribute to the sense of body #ownership🖐️, yet their role remains highly debated. In our new study, we test this assumption within the framework of pathological body ownership after right-brain #stroke🧠
