This is a review of the proprioceptive senses generated as a result of our own actions. They
include the senses of position and movement of our limbs and trunk, the sense of effort, the …

This brief review summarizes 60 years of conceptual advances that have demonstrated a
role for active changes in neuronal connectivity as a controller of behavior and behavioral …

Pioneering work with nonhuman primates and recent human studies established
intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) in primary somatosensory cortex (S1) as a method of …

Objective. An important goal of neuroprosthetic research is to establish bidirectional
communication between the user and new prosthetic limbs that are capable of controlling> …

The self-organized map, an architecture suggested for artificial neural networks, is explained
by presenting simulation experiments and practical applications. The self-organizing map …

It has been 30 years since the discovery that repeated electrical stimulation of neural
pathways can lead to long-term potentiation in hippocampal slices. With its relevance to …

Abstract “Neural plasticity” refers to the capacity of the nervous system to modify itself,
functionally and structurally, in response to experience and injury. As the various chapters in …

There is growing evidence that sensory deprivation is associated with crossmodal
neuroplastic changes in the brain. After visual or auditory deprivation, brain areas that are …

Almost everyone who has a limb amputated will experience a phantom limb--the vivid
impression that the limb is not only still present, but in some cases, painful. There is now a …

This study was undertaken to document plastic changes in the functional topography of
primary motor cortex (Ml) that are generated in motor skill learning in the normal, intact …
