Network dynamics for sensory prioritization: Functional connectivity related to individual sensory weighting of vision versus proprioception during upper limb control
Precise control of the hand requires the dynamic integration of visual and proprioceptive (body position sense) sensory cues with internal models, task goals, and motor plans. Individual differences i...

What happens to motor adaptation—the way we correct errors with feedback—when feedback is indirect, like a number on a screen?
In our new paper in @royalsociety.org, we found that indirect feedback hinders learning compared to sensory feedback.

(1/5)📢Now with bonus experiment!📢Somatosensory cortex and body representation.
When hand representation is modified by introducing a conflict between visual and proprioceptive cues, the motor system receives updates directly from primary somatosensory cortex (SI). www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

📢New preprint! The brain may handle visuo-proprioceptive cue conflicts differently for a dynamic hand undergoing visuomotor adaptation than for a static hand. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
