The emergence of cross-modal learning capabilities requires the interaction of neural areas
accounting for sensory and cognitive processing. Convergence of multiple sensory inputs is …

Damage to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) impairs gating of irrelevant sensory
information at early cortical processing stages. We investigated how transient inhibition of …

Normal aging has been linked to impairments in gating of irrelevant sensory information and
neural markers of diminished cognitive processing. Whilst much of the research in this area …

Introduction The prefrontal–cingulate–thalamic areas are associated with ejaculation
control. Functional abnormalities of these areas and decreased grey matter volume (GMV) in …

Accumulating evidence suggests that neural interactions are distributed and relate to animal
behavior, but many open questions remain. The neural assembly hypothesis, formulated by …

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) has been implicated in novelty detection and attention.
We studied the effect of mPFC electrical stimulation on whisker responses recorded in the …

Objectives To investigate the role of the prefrontal cortex in attention-based modulation of
cortical somatosensory processing. Methods Six prefrontal stroke patients were compared …

Processing of tactile sensory information in rodents is critically dependent on the
communication between the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and higher-order integrative …

Objective The purpose of this investigation was to better understand the effects of
concussions on the ability to selectively up or down-regulate incoming somatosensory …

The introduction of brain stimulation research techniques such as transcranial magnetic
stimulation (TMS) has greatly advanced the understanding of the somatosensory system in …
