Integration of sensory and motor information is one-step, among others, that underlies the
successful production of goal-directed hand movements necessary for interacting with our …

In primates, neural mechanisms for controlling skilled hand actions primarily rely on
sensorimotor transformations. These transformations are mediated by circuits linking specific …

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by striatal dopamine depletion, especially in the
posterior putamen. The dense connectivity profile of the striatum suggests that these local …

Although the human hand has a complex structure with many individual degrees of freedom,
joint movements are correlated. Studies involving simple tasks (grasping) or skilled tasks …

Traditional brain–machine interfaces decode cortical motor commands to control external
devices. These commands are the product of higher-level cognitive processes, occurring …

A method to present volumetric haptic objects in the air using spatial modulation of
ultrasound is proposed. Previous methods of airborne ultrasonic tactile display were based …

A fine-grained description of the spatiotemporal dynamics of human brain activity is a major
goal of neuroscientific research. Limitations in spatial and temporal resolution of available …

Purpose Parkinson's disease (PD) is primarily defined by motor symptoms and is associated
with alterations of sensorimotor areas. Evidence for network changes of the sensorimotor …

Recent human imaging studies have revealed the involvement of the secondary
somatosensory cortex (SII) in processes that require high-level information integration, such …

Besides providing information on elementary properties of objects, like texture, roughness,
and softness, the sense of touch is also important in building a representation of object …
