Behaviorally Relevant Information Content in Interneuron Activity

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans offers a uniquely tractable model for studying the relationships between neuronal activity, connectivity, and behavior. Despite its simplicity, key questions remain about how information flows through its nervous system ...

Investigations on the Ability of the Insular Cortex to Process Peripheral Immunosuppression

Raphaël Doenlen

The brain and immune system communicate through complex bidirectional pathways, but the specificity by which the brain perceives or even remembers alterations in immune homeostasis is still poorly understood. Recent data revealed that immune-related inform ...

An automatized method to determine latencies of motor-evoked potentials under physiological and pathophysiological conditions

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis, Andéol Geoffroy Cadic-Melchior, Claudia Bigoni

Background. Latencies of motor evoked potentials (MEPs) can provide insights into the motor neuronal pathways activated by transcranial magnetic stimulation. Notwithstanding its clinical relevance, accurate, unbiased methods to automatize latency detection ...

Single-neuron models linking electrophysiology, morphology, and transcriptomics across cortical cell types

Werner Alfons Hilda Van Geit

Which cell types constitute brain circuits is a fundamental question, but establishing the correspondence across cellular data modalities is challenging. Bio-realistic models allow probing cause-and-effect and linking seemingly disparate modalities. Here, ...

Investigation of electrical stimulation of the optic nerve for artificial vision

Vivien Gaillet

Thanks to recent technological advances in microelectronics and bioengineering, it is now possible to restore lost or impaired sensory modalities by interfering the nervous system with elec-tronic devices and artificially reproducing the electrical encodin ...

Anatomically and functionally distinct thalamocortical inputs to primary and secondary mouse whisker somatosensory cortices

Carl Petersen, Georgios Foustoukos, Berat Semihcan Sermet, Sami El-Boustani

Subdivisions of mouse whisker somatosensory thalamus project to cortex in a region-specific and layer-specific manner. However, a clear anatomical dissection of these pathways and their functional properties during whisker sensation is lacking. Here, we us ...

Insula mediates heartbeat related effects on visual consciousness

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

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 ...

Selective electrical and optical neuromodulation of the central nervous system with conformable microfabricated implants

Amélie Anne Guex

Neuroprosthetic systems are designed to interface with the nervous system, for the replacement or restoration of damaged functions in the motor and/or sensory systems. In order to have an efficient communication with the nervous tissue leading to optimized ...

Anatomical and functional properties of the foot and leg representation in areas 3b, 1 and 2 of primary somatosensory cortex in humans: A 7T fMRI study

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Roger Gassert, Roberto Martuzzi, Michel Akselrod

Primary somatosensory cortex (S1) processes somatosensory information and is composed of multiple subregions. In particular, tactile information from the skin is encoded in three subregions, namely Brodmann areas (BAs) 3b, 1 and 2, with each area represent ...

Visuo-vestibular mechanisms of bodily self-consciousness

Joachim Jean-Marie Forget

Bodily self-consciousness is linked to multisensory integration and is particularly dependent on vestibular perception providing the brain with the main sensory cues about body motion and location in space. Vestibular and visual inputs are permanently bala ...

Embodying an outgroup: the role of racial bias and the effect of multisensory processing in somatosensory remapping

Andrea Serino

We come to understand other people's physical and mental states by re-mapping their bodily states onto our sensorimotor system. This process, also called somatosensory resonance, is an essential ability for social cognition and is stronger when observing i ...

Predictive Engineering the Membrane Composition of Neocortical Neurons

Georges Khazen

The brain is the most mysterious and intricate biological structure known to man. It dominates the way we live, think, reason and behave. It is built of billions of neurons that communicate with each other through trillions of connections using electrical ...
