Body movement perception is shaped by both generic and actor-specific models of human bodies

The paper investigates body movement perception, showing it is influenced by both generic and actor-specific biomechanical models rather than just self-body models.

Shape-centered representations of bounded regions of space mediate the transformation of retinotopic representations into conscious perception of objects

The paper describes a visual disorder where a patient perceives bounded shapes as rotated or mirrored, suggesting shape-centered representations mediate object perception from retinotopic inputs.

Typical lipreading and audiovisual speech perception without motor simulation

The paper shows that individuals with lip paralysis can have typical lipreading and audiovisual speech perception without covert motor simulation.

Large-scale organization of the hand action observation network in individuals born without hands

The paper investigates the hand action observation network in individuals born without hands, finding an intact network despite lacking the corresponding motor experience.

Limitations of compensatory plasticity: the organization of the primary sensorimotor cortex in foot-using bilateral upper limb dysplasics

The paper investigates brain plasticity in individuals born without hands, finding that primary sensorimotor cortex shows limited reorganization based on compensatory foot use, while association cortex exhibits functional reorganization.
