A Computational Approach for the Design of Epidural Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation Strategies to Enable Locomotion after Spinal Cord Injury

Emanuele Formento

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of paralysis with currently no effective treatment. Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) of the lumbar spinal cord has been shown to restore locomotion in animal models of SCI, but has not yet reached the same lev ...

A field study investigation on the influence of light level on subjective thermal perception in different seasons

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo, Luisa Pastore

This paper evaluates the influence of light levels (i.e., illuminance) on subjective thermal perception of people, distinguishing between thermal sensation and thermal evaluation. The goal is to investigate whether reported effects found by other studies i ...

Indoor environment as a multi-sensory experience: visual and thermal factor interactions

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

In our daily lives we are exposed simultaneously to multiple sensory stimuli, such as visual, thermal, acoustic and olfactory. Experienced together, they shape our perception of the environment and determine our comfort. In indoor environments, stimuli are ...

Sustained enhancements in inhibitory control depend primarily on the reinforcement of fronto-basal anatomical connectivity

Wietske Van der Zwaag

What are the neurophysiological determinants of sustained supra-normal inhibitory control performance? We addressed this question by coupling multimodal neuroimaging and behavioral investigations of experts in fencing who underwent more than 20,000 h of in ...

Acetylated tubulin is essential for touch sensation in mice

Kai Johnsson, Luc Reymond, Antonino Asaro

At its most fundamental level, touch sensation requires the translation of mechanical energy into mechanosensitive ion channel opening, thereby generating electro-chemical signals. Our understanding of this process, especially how the cytoskeleton influenc ...

Multimodal stimulus coding by a gustatory sensory neuron in Drosophila larvae

Philippe Renaud

Accurate perception of taste information is crucial for animal survival. In adult Drosophila, gustatory receptor neurons (GRNs) perceive chemical stimuli of one specific gustatory modality associated with a stereotyped behavioural response, such as aversio ...

Numerical Priming Between Touch and Vision Depends on Tactile Discrimination

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Laurène Véronique Vuillaume

Although the interaction between vision and touch is of crucial importance for perceptual and bodily self-consciousness, only little is known regarding the link between conscious access and tactile processing. Here, we tested whether the numerical encoding ...

Multimodal Dataset for Assessment of Quality of Experience in Immersive Multimedia

Touradj Ebrahimi, Martin Rerabek, Eleni Kroupi, He Xu, Anne-Flore Nicole Marie Perrin

This paper presents a novel multimodal dataset for the analysis of Quality of Experience (QoE) in emerging immersive multimedia technologies. In particular, the perceived Sense of Presence (SoP) induced by one-minute long video stimuli is explored with res ...

Stroking or Buzzing? A Comparison of Somatosensory Touch Stimuli Using 7 Tesla fMRI

Rolf Gruetter, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Roberto Martuzzi

Studying body representations in the brain helps us to understand how we humans relate to our own bodies. The in vivo mapping of the somatosensory cortex, where these representations are found, is greatly facilitated by the high spatial resolution and high ...
