This study shows that motor cortex and peripheral muscles are reactivated during memory retrieval, supporting the embodied nature of episodic memory.

The paper investigates how bodily self-consciousness affects episodic memory in a patient with hippocampal damage, showing that embodied encoding leads to stronger memory deficits.

This study shows that premotor-hippocampal coupling supports the sense of self in episodic memory by linking self-related encoding to retrieval.

The paper investigates single neuron activity in thalamic and subthalamic regions of humans, finding that about 70% of neurons respond to cardiac or respiratory signals, with some neurons responding to both.

The paper investigates how neural responses to heartbeats during imagination distinguish self from other, finding differences in specific brain regions.
