Tactile spatial discrimination on the torso using vibrotactile and force stimulation

Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape, Masayuki Hara, Matteo Franza

There is a steadily growing number of mobile communication systems that provide spatially encoded tactile information to the humans’ torso. However, the increased use of such hands-off displays is currently not matched with or supported by systematic perce ...

GEFF: Graph embedding for functional fingerprinting

Enrico Amico

It has been well established that Functional Connectomes (FCs), as estimated from functional MRI (fMRI) data, have an individual fingerprint that can be used to identify an individual from a population (subject-identification). Although identification rate ...

Action Monitoring Cortical Activity Coupled to Submovements

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Aleksander Sobolewski

Numerous studies have examined neural correlates of the human brain’s action-monitoring system during experimentally segmented tasks. However, it remains unknown how such a system operates during continuous motor output when no experimental time marker is ...

Agile in-litero experiments : how can semi-automated information extraction from neuroscientific literature help neuroscience model building?

Renaud Luc Richardet

In neuroscience, as in many other scientific domains, the primary form of knowledge dissemination is through published articles in peer-reviewed journals. One challenge for modern neuroinformatics is to design methods to make the knowledge from the tremend ...

Linking perceptual learning with identical stimuli to imagery perceptual learning

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia

Perceptual learning is usually thought to be exclusively driven by the stimuli presented during training (and the underlying synaptic learning rules). In some way, we are slaves of our visual experiences. However, learning can occur even when no stimuli ar ...

Perceptual learning of motion discrimination by mental imagery

Michael Herzog, Fred Mast, Elisa Tartaglia, Laura Bamert

Perceptual learning can occur when stimuli are only imagined, i.e., without proper stimulus presentation. For example, perceptual learning improved bisection discrimination when only the two outer lines of the bisection stimulus were presented and the cent ...

Cognitive disorganisation in schizotypy is associated with deterioration in visual backward masking

Michael Herzog, Christine Mohr, Daniela Herzig

To understand the causes of schizophrenia, a search for stable markers (endophenotypes) is ongoing. In previous years, we have shown that the shine-through visual backward masking paradigm meets the most important characteristics of an endophenotype. Here, ...

Mental imagery of self-location during spontaneous and active self-other interactions: an electrical neuroimaging study

Olaf Blanke, Manuel Mercier

Substantial data from the cognitive neurosciences point to the importance of bodily processing for the development of a comprehensive theory of the self. A key aspect of the bodily self is self-location, the experience that the self is localized at a speci ...
