Reacting to a touch on the skin often requires the remapping of the initial somatotopicaly‐
based representation of the stimulus into an external frame of reference that incorporates …

Orienting our gaze or attention to the location of tactile events in the skin feels natural and
effortless. However, this process requires combining somatosensory and proprioceptive …

To perceive the location of a tactile stimulus in external space (external tactile localisation),
information about the location of the stimulus on the skin surface (tactile localisation on the …

During the apparently mindless act of localizing a tactile sensation our brain must realign its
initial spatial representation on the skin (somatotopicaly arranged) according to current body …

Oscillatory α-band activity is commonly associated with spatial attention and multisensory
prioritization. It has also been suggested to reflect the automatic transformation of tactile …

Localizing and reacting to tactile events on our skin requires the coordination between
primary somatotopic projections and an external representation of space. Previous research …

Identifying the spatial location of touch on the skin surface is a fundamental function of our
somatosensory system. Despite the fact that stimulation of even single mechanoreceptive …

Tactile stimulus location is automatically transformed from somatotopic into external spatial
coordinates, rendering information about the location of touch in three-dimensional space …

Localizing tactile stimuli on our body requires sensory information to be represented in
multiple frames of reference along the sensory pathways. These reference frames include …

Tactile localization entails the transformation of the initial skin-based location into an
external reference frame that accounts for body posture and subsequent flexible integration …
