Changes in α-band cortical oscillatory activity (8–13 Hz) affect perception; however, how
these changes in the left posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and primary somatosensory cortex …

Introduction Spontaneous oscillations in the somatosensory cortex, especially of the alpha
(8− 14 Hz) and gamma (60− 80 Hz) frequencies, affect tactile perception; moreover, these …

The parietal operculum (PO) often shows ipsilateral activation during tactile object
perception in neuroimaging experiments. However, the relative contribution of the PO to …

Near-threshold tactile stimuli perception and somatosensory temporal discrimination
threshold (STDT) are encoded in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and largely depend …

The intraparietal sulcus region, which is part of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC), has been
shown to play an important role in discriminating object shapes using the fingers …

In healthy subjects, dual hemisphere transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the
primary (S1) and secondary somatosensory cortices (S2) has been found to transiently …

Perception of physical identical stimuli can differ over time depending on the brain state.
One marker of this brain state can be neuronal oscillations in the alpha band (8–12 Hz). A …

Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (a-tDCS) of primary somatosensory cortex (S1)
has been shown to enhance tactile spatial acuity, but there is little information as to the …

OBJECTIVE: Non-invasive brain stimulation such as transcranial direct current stimulation
(tDCS) has been successfully used to induce polarity-specific excitability changes in the …

The temporal order judgment (TOJ) task has been widely used to investigate spatial
attentional bias and the sensitivity of temporal discrimination during the processing of …
