Event-related causality in stereo-EEG discriminates syntactic processing of noun phrases and verb phrases

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Objective. Syntax involves complex neurobiological mechanisms, which are difficult to disentangle for multiple reasons. Using a protocol able to separate syntactic information from sound information we investigated the neural causal connections evoked by t ...

Early motor skill acquisition in healthy older adults: brain correlates of the learning process

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Chang-Hyun Park, Pablo Maceira Elvira, Manon Chloé Durand-Ruel, Maeva Moyne

Motor skill learning is a crucial process at all ages. However, healthy aging is often accompanied by a reduction in motor learning capabilities. This study characterized the brain dynamics of healthy older adults during motor skill acquisition and identif ...

Tonic pain alters functional connectivity of the descending pain modulatory network involving amygdala, periaqueductal gray, parabrachial nucleus and anterior cingulate cortex

Anne-Christine Schmid

Introduction: Resting state functional connectivity (FC) is widely used to assess functional brain alterations in patients with chronic pain. However, reports of FC accompanying tonic pain in pain-free persons are rare. A network we term the Descending Pai ...

Signatures of life course socioeconomic conditions in brain anatomy

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

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 bra ...

Increased functional connectivity of the intraparietal sulcus underlies the attenuation of numerosity estimations for self-generated words

Olaf Blanke, Giulio Rognini, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Jevita Potheegadoo, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Giedre Stripeikyte

Previous studies have shown that self-generated stimuli in auditory, visual, and somatosensory domains are attenuated, producing decreased behavioral and neural responses compared to the same stimuli that are externally generated. Yet, whether such attenua ...

Gamma Knife radiosurgery as salvage therapy for gangliogliomas after initial microsurgical resection

Constantin Tuleasca

Introduction: Gangliogliomas (GG) are considered WHO grade I rare tumors. While they commonly manifest as temporal lobe epilepsy, they can be located anywhere in the brain. Primary treatment is complete microsurgical resection. Remnant or recurrent GG can ...

Common and distinct brain networks of autoscopic phenomena

Olaf Blanke, Lukas Heydrich, Eva Blondiaux

Objective Autoscopic phenomena (AP) are illusory own body reduplications characterized by the visual perception of a second own body in extrapersonal space, and include three main forms: autoscopic hallucination (AH), heautoscopy (HAS) and out-of-body-expe ...

Brain network modulation in transradial amputee with finger perception restored through biomimetic intraneural stimulation

Silvestro Micera, Giacomo Valle, Fabrizio Vecchio

Introduction/aims The hand is a sophisticated tool which allows humans to interact with the external world mainly via the sense of touch. Previous evidences demonstrated that electrical stimulations of the nerve trunks governing the hand are able to restor ...

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. ...

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

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

Bodily self and human grid cell-like activity: probing spatial representation with immersive virtual reality

Hyukjun Moon

Grid cells are place-modulated neurons that encode the location of an agent in space, relying on the integration of various sensorimotor signals from the body. Of note, the integration of those signals is also fundamental for the agent's conscious experien ...

Motor control: Neural correlates of optimal feedback control theory

Mackenzie Mathis, Steffen Schneider

Recent work is revealing neural correlates of a leading theory of motor control. By linking an elegant series of behavioral experiments with neural inactivation in macaques with computational models, a new study shows that premotor and parietal areas can b ...

The role of the inferior parietal lobule in writer's cramp

Traian Popa

Humans have a distinguishing ability for fine motor control that is subserved by a highly evolved cortico-motor neuronal network. The acquisition of a particular motor skill involves a long series of practice movements, trial and error, adjustment and refi ...
