Sensory weighting of position and force feedback during pinching
Human hands are complex biomechanical systems that allow for dexterous tasks with many degrees of freedom. Coordination of the fingers is essential...

Restoration of sensory feedback from the foot and reduction of phantom limb pain via closed-loop spinal cord stimulation
Restoring somatosensory feedback in individuals with lower-limb amputations would reduce the risk of falls and alleviate phantom limb pain. Here we...

A computational neural model that incorporates both intrinsic dynamics and sensory feedback in the Aplysia feeding network
Studying the nervous system underlying animal motor control can shed light on how animals can adapt flexibly to a changing environment. We focus on...

Experience of adults with upper-limb difference and their views on sensory feedback for prostheses: a mixed methods study
BackgroundUpper-limb prostheses are regularly abandoned, in part due to the mismatch between user needs and prostheses performance. Sensory feedback...

Sensory feedback expands dynamic complexity and aids in robustness against noise
It has been hypothesized that sensory feedback is a critical component in determining the functionality of a central pattern generator. To test this,...

Control of arm movements in Friedreich’s ataxia patients: role of sensory feedback
Friedreich’s ataxia (FA) is a hereditary system degeneration, which progressively affects sensory functions such as proprioceptive feedback, which...
-
A sensory–motor theory of the neocortex
Recent neurophysiological and neuroanatomical studies suggest a close interaction between sensory and motor processes across the neocortex. Here, I...

Sensory integration for neuroprostheses: from functional benefits to neural correlates
AbstractIn the field of sensory neuroprostheses, one ultimate goal is for individuals to perceive artificial somatosensory information and use the...

Closed-loop sacral neuromodulation for bladder function using dorsal root ganglia sensory feedback in an anesthetized feline model
Overactive bladder patients suffer from a frequent, uncontrollable urge to urinate, which can lead to a poor quality of life. We aim to improve...

Impairment of the internal forward model and feedback mechanisms for vocal sensorimotor control in post-stroke aphasia: evidence from directional responses to altered auditory feedback
The present study examined opposing and following vocal responses to altered auditory feedback (AAF) to determine how damage to left-hemisphere brain...

Enhancing touch sensibility with sensory electrical stimulation and sensory retraining
A large proportion of stroke survivors suffer from sensory loss, negatively impacting their independence, quality of life, and neurorehabilitation...

Controlling stick balancing on a linear track: Delayed state feedback or delay-compensating predictor feedback?
A planar stick balancing task was investigated using stabilometry parameters (SP); a concept initially developed to assess the stability of human...

The Role of Auditory Feedback in Voice Control in Normal and Impaired Hearing
Monitoring of the voice and speech is mediated by the joint operation of forward and feedback connections. Feedforward is responsible for activating...
-
The role of vision in sensory integration models for predicting motion perception and sickness
Users of automated vehicles will engage in other activities and take their eyes off the road, making them prone to motion sickness. To resolve this,...

Wrist speed feedback improves elbow compensation and reaching accuracy for myoelectric transradial prosthesis users in hybrid virtual reaching task
BackgroundMyoelectric prostheses are a popular choice for restoring motor capability following the loss of a limb, but they do not provide direct...

GABA facilitates spike propagation through branch points of sensory axons in the spinal cord
Movement and posture depend on sensory feedback that is regulated by specialized GABAergic neurons (GAD2 + ) that form axo-axonic contacts onto...
-
Dynamical consequences of sensory feedback in a half-center oscillator coupled to a simple motor system
We investigate a simple model for motor pattern generation that combines central pattern generator (CPG) dynamics with a sensory feedback (FB)...

Temporal adaptation of sensory attenuation for self-touch
The sensory consequences of our actions appear attenuated to us. This effect has been reported for external sensations that are evoked by auditory or...

A robot-based interception task to quantify upper limb impairments in proprioceptive and visual feedback after stroke
BackgroundA key motor skill is the ability to rapidly interact with our dynamic environment. Humans can generate goal-directed motor actions in...

Effects of sensory modality and task relevance on omitted stimulus potentials
Omitted stimulus potentials (OSPs) occur when a sensory stimulus is unexpectedly omitted. They are thought to reflect predictions about upcoming...
