Parcellating cerebral cortex: how invasive animal studies inform noninvasive mapmaking in humans
DC Van Essen, MF Glasser - Neuron, 2018 - cell.com
The cerebral cortex in mammals contains a mosaic of cortical areas that differ in function,
architecture, connectivity, and/or topographic organization. A combination of local …

Motor planning brings human primary somatosensory cortex into action-specific preparatory states
Motor planning plays a critical role in producing fast and accurate movement. Yet, the neural
processes that occur in human primary motor and somatosensory cortex during planning …

Obtaining and maintaining cortical hand representation as evidenced from acquired and congenital handlessness
A key question in neuroscience is how cortical organisation relates to experience.
Previously we showed that amputees experiencing highly vivid phantom sensations …

Finger somatotopy is preserved after tetraplegia but deteriorates over time
Previous studies showed reorganised and/or altered activity in the primary sensorimotor
cortex after a spinal cord injury (SCI), suggested to reflect abnormal processing. However …
