Neuroimaging and neurophysiological studies have shown that nociceptive stimuli elicit
responses in an extensive cortical network including somatosensory, insular and cingulate …

It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

The commentaries have raised important points regarding different aspects of our model.
Some have queried the nature of the proposed dissociations, whereas others have …

Over the last decades, scientists have questioned the origin of the exquisite human mastery
of tools. Seminal studies in monkeys, healthy participants and brain-damaged patients have …

To sensibly interact with the environment, like when grasping objects and navigating
through space, the brain needs to compute not only target-and environment-related inputs …

Oscillatory alpha-band activity (8–15 Hz) over parieto-occipital cortex in humans plays an
important role in suppression of processing for inputs at to-be-ignored regions of space, with …

Multiple disturbances following lesions of the insula are reviewed in the present article,
including those related to autonomic function; gustatory, olfactory, auditory, somatosensory …

Research in the last four decades has brought a considerable advance in our understanding
of how the brain synthesizes information arising from different sensory modalities. Indeed …

Visually dominant behavior has been observed in many different species, including birds,
cows, dogs, and humans (eg, Partan and Marler 1999; Posner et al. 1976; Uetake and Kudo …

Peripersonal space processing in monkeys' brain relies on visuo-tactile neurons activated
by objects near, not touching, the animal's skin. Multisensory interplay in peripersonal space …
