Sensory perception, including 2-point discrimination (2ptD), is tightly linked to cortical
processing of tactile stimuli in primary somatosensory cortices. While the role of cortical …

Inter‐areal and ipsilateral cortical responses to tactile stimulation have not been well
described in human S1 cortex. By taking advantage of the high signal‐to‐noise ratio at 7 T …

We used fMRI to investigate the effects of tactile co-activation on the topographic
organization of the human primary somatosensory cortex (SI). Behavioral consequences of …

Although some brain areas preferentially process information from a particular sensory
modality, these areas can also respond to other modalities. Here we used fMRI to show that …

According to the hierarchical view of human somatosensory network, somatic sensory
information is relayed from the thalamus to primary somatosensory cortex (S1), and then …

We investigated to which extent the discrimination of tactile patterns and vibrotactile
frequencies share common cortical areas. An adaptation paradigm has been used to identify …

Background Our goal was to examine the spatiotemporal integration of tactile information in
the hand representation of human primary somatosensory cortex (anterior parietal …

There is a growing interest in identifying the neural mechanisms by which the human brain
allows for improving performance. Tactile perceptual measurements, eg two-point …

Intracortical mapping in monkeys revealed a full body map in all four cytoarchitectonic
subdivisions of the contralateral primary somatosensory cortex (S1), as well as positive …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to examine the influence of non-
painful electrical stimulus intensity on the BOLD response in human primary somatosensory …
