The paper analyzes electrophysiological signals from white matter and finds they have distinct spectral features and higher complexity compared to gray matter.

The paper investigates how cold perception affects touch sensitivity using a thermal illusion and a computational model, finding that subjective cold perception modulates tactile detection thresholds.

This study investigates how damage to primary somatosensory cortex affects motor networks in humans, showing altered activation in subcortical areas and potential reorganization of motor function.

This study examines how losing fingertip touch affects eye-hand coordination during a manual dexterity task, finding increased trial times, altered force profiles, and more aligned gaze and hand positions.

The paper uses fMRI to show that human neocortex responses are tuned for vibration frequency, reflecting perceptual sensitivity and Pacinian afferent system responses.

The paper investigates tactile search behavior over the body using a tactile analog of the visual search task, finding serial search processes and frequency-dependent performance.

This paper evaluates PSF-EPI for reducing TMS coil-induced distortions in simultaneous TMS-fMRI, showing improved signal-to-noise and less distortion compared to conventional EPI and SMS-EPI.

The paper uses fMRI adaptation to show that multimodal frequency processing in human cortex is feature-specific and embedded in modality-defined sensory systems.

The paper investigates bimanual touch by analyzing how tactile cue combination varies with attended stimulus features and proposes divisive normalization models to explain these patterns.

The paper shows that selective attention enhances functional coupling between somatosensory and auditory cortical systems during frequency perception.
