A new scientific review published in Biological Psychology highlights the potential role of touch-related sensory decline as an early warning sign for cognitive deterioration. The findings suggest ...

The primary somatosensory and visual cortex exhibit correlated spontaneous activity Because RL needs to integrate activity from both V1 and S1 simultaneously, we hypothesized that there could be ...

We present a data-driven computational model of the anatomy of non-barrel primary somatosensory cortex of juvenile rat, integrating whole-brain scale data while providing cellular and subcellular ...

András Ecker et al. Assemblies, synapse clustering and network topology interact with plasticity to explain structure-function relationships of the cortical connectome. eLife, 2024 DOI: 10.7554 ...

They contain the primary somatosensory cortex, which processes sensory input, including touch, pain, temperature, position of the body, and location in space. Temporal Lobes ...

The somatosensory cortex is a region of the mammalian brain known to play a crucial role in the processing of sensory information, including tactile sensations, temperature and pain. While this ...

In this review, I highlight two important areas of progress. First, I provide an update on taste physiology and biochemistry, the receptors mediating prototypical taste perception, and taste ...

Despite substantial progress in mapping the trajectory of network plasticity resulting from focal ischemic stroke, the extent and nature of changes in neuronal excitability and activity within the ...

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2316294121 The somatosensory cortex is a brain region known to play a role in the detection of tactile information, changes in temperature, and pain sensations.
